Electrical stimulation cycling for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether using a special bike that delivers mild electrical pulses to your leg muscles can help improve walking after a stroke. If you have weakness on one side from a stroke that happened 3 to 12 months ago, this study may be a good fit for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult who had a first stroke that only affects one side of your body.
- You can walk safely on your own.
- Your stroke happened between 3 months and 1 year ago.
- You are able to understand and follow simple instructions.
- You do not have other nerve problems, unstable heart conditions, or a pacemaker.
