Can a smart sleeve steady Parkinson's steps?
NCT ID NCT07284823
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early study tests whether a leg sleeve called the Cionic Neural Sleeve is safe and easy for people with Parkinson's to use at home. Ten volunteers with walking problems will try the device, which uses mild electrical pulses to help muscles move. The main goal is to see if people can operate the sleeve on their own, not whether it improves symptoms.
