Summary

This study tests whether a gentle nerve stimulation (taVNS) combined with robot-assisted arm training can help stroke survivors regain arm movement, breathing strength, and quality of life. Thirty adults who had a stroke at least six months ago will receive either real or fake stimulation during five weeks of therapy. The goal is to see if adding nerve stimulation makes rehabilitation more effective.
