Robots and zaps: new hope for stroke patients regaining arm use

NCT ID NCT05570838

Summary

This study aimed to see if adding functional electrical stimulation (FES) to standard robotic arm therapy could help people recover arm movement after a recent stroke. It involved 70 participants who were split into two groups: one received the combined therapy, and the other received only robotic therapy. The goal was to compare improvements in arm function, strength, and quality of life between the two approaches.
