Spinal zaps may help stroke patients regain leg control
NCT ID NCT06541015
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the spine (called tsDCS) can improve reflexes, walking, and balance in people who have leg weakness after a stroke. Researchers will measure changes in movement and adaptation over 15 sessions. The goal is to understand if this non-invasive technique can aid recovery, not to cure the condition.
