Sound waves vs. stroke stiffness: new hope for arm movement?

NCT ID NCT07119801

Summary

This study is testing if a non-invasive treatment called Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) can reduce painful muscle stiffness in the wrist of people who have had a stroke. Researchers will compare the therapy to standard care in 32 participants to see if it improves arm movement and daily function. A key goal is to use special ultrasound scans to get an objective, reliable measure of how well the treatment works on muscle stiffness.
