Summary

This study tests whether a gentle nerve stimulation device placed on the ear (taVNS) combined with robot-assisted arm training can help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago regain arm movement. Thirty adults with moderate to severe arm weakness will receive either real or sham stimulation plus robot training for 5 weeks. Researchers will measure changes in arm function, grip strength, and daily living skills.
