NCT ID NCT07112911

Summary

This study is testing whether a combination of electrical stimulation and robot-assisted training can help people who have had a stroke regain movement and function in their weakened arm and hand. It involves 65 participants in Hong Kong who are at least 6 months past their stroke. The approach uses electrical pulses on the spine and muscles, along with a robot, to help retrain the brain and body to work together again.
