Smart wearable zaps muscles to relearn walking after stroke
NCT ID NCT04154514
Summary
This study tested a wearable device that uses gentle electrical stimulation to help chronic stroke survivors improve their walking. The device stimulates multiple leg muscles in coordinated patterns that mimic natural movement. Researchers worked with 53 participants over about a month of training sessions to see if this approach could help restore more normal walking patterns.
