Stroke recovery goes home: nerve-stim therapy tested in living rooms
NCT ID NCT05691023
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether stroke survivors can get effective arm rehabilitation at home using a device that stimulates the vagus nerve during therapy. About 50 people who already have the Vivistim implant will receive up to 36 hours of in-home therapy paired with nerve stimulation. The goal is to see if at-home treatment works as well as clinic-based therapy for improving arm movement.
