Spinal implant and Mind-Controlled rehab may restore arm movement after stroke
NCT ID NCT07686822
First seen Jul 07, 2026 · Last updated Jul 08, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether combining spinal cord stimulation with brain-computer interface training can improve arm function in people who had a stroke more than six months ago. Participants will either receive both treatments or the brain-computer training alone. The goal is to see if the combination leads to better movement and daily use of the affected arm.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- spinal cord stimulation device and motor imagery brain-computer interface training
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this combination approach could offer a new way to restore arm movement in people who have had a stroke, even years later.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-stage, single-center study with only 66 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The spinal cord stimulation requires surgery, which carries risks like infection or device problems.
