Zap therapy tested to rebuild strength in paralyzed stroke patients
NCT ID NCT07130929
Summary
This small pilot study is testing whether adding functional electrical stimulation (FES) to standard physical therapy helps patients regain leg strength and movement after a severe stroke. FES uses gentle electrical pulses through skin pads to help activate weakened muscles during guided exercises. The goal is to see if this combined approach improves recovery more than physical therapy alone for patients with significant muscle weakness acquired in the intensive care unit.
