Could a wrist vibration gadget restore hand control after a stroke?
NCT ID NCT06357247
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a small, wearable device that gives gentle vibrations to the wrist of stroke survivors. The goal is to see if it's practical for people to use at home and whether it might improve hand movement and feeling. Only 20 people who had a stroke at least six months ago will take part. The study is currently on hold.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Sensory Threshold Stochastic Resonance Stimulation (SRS) device
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple, at-home device to help stroke survivors regain hand dexterity and sensation.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study (20 people) that is currently suspended. It only measures whether people can use the device at home, not whether it actually improves function.
