Summary
This study tests whether mild electrical stimulation of the vagus nerve (through the ear or neck) can improve arm movement, thinking skills, and quality of life when added to standard therapy. About 54 adults who had a stroke 3–6 months ago will receive either ear or neck stimulation plus task practice. The goal is to see which approach works better and helps people regain independence.
