First seen Oct 31, 2025 · Last updated May 25, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This small pilot study is testing whether combining two non-invasive treatments—brain stimulation (tDCS) and muscle stimulation (FES)—can help people who had a stroke at least six months ago regain better control of their hand. The study involves 15 participants and measures changes in brain activity and reaction time. It is an early-stage study focused on safety and feasibility, not a cure.
