NCT ID NCT07121582

First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 02, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study looks at how the brain talks to muscles in people who have had a stroke. Researchers will use a safe, non-invasive technique to stimulate different parts of the brain while participants squeeze a device with their weak hand. The goal is to see if this stimulation improves brain-muscle communication and hand control. About 20 people with chronic stroke will take part in a single 3-hour visit.
