Shock and move: new combo therapy boosts stroke arm recovery
NCT ID NCT07531381
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether combining neuromuscular electrical stimulation (gentle electrical pulses to muscles) with task-oriented training (practicing everyday movements) could improve arm and hand function in stroke survivors. 45 people who had a stroke 6 to 24 months earlier took part. Researchers measured changes in movement quality, spasticity, and coordination before and after the therapy.
