Somatosensory stimulation for cerebral palsy mobility
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical stimulation on the skin can improve movement and daily function in adults with cerebral palsy who have limited mobility.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult between 18 and 50 years old
- You have a medical diagnosis of cerebral palsy
- Your walking ability is at level I, II, or III on the GMFCS scale (mild to moderate difficulty)
- You can participate in assessments with help from the study team
- You understand the consent form or have a legal guardian who can agree for you

This study tests whether adding electrical stimulation to core strengthening exercises helps improve walking and posture in children with spastic diplegia (a type of cerebral palsy). It is designed for children aged 4 to 6 with mild muscle stiffness who are already walking well.
This study tests whether a mild electrical stimulation applied to the skin over the spine can help children with cerebral palsy improve their movement and walking. Researchers will compare children who receive this treatment with children who don't have cerebral palsy to see if it makes a real difference.
This study tests spinal stimulation and mobility-related devices to see if they can improve how well you move. You would visit a lab, do simple movement tasks, and share feedback about comfort and what you experience.
This trial tests if combining spinal cord stimulation with a drug called 5-azacitidine can improve movement and muscle control in children with cerebral palsy. It aims to help with daily activities like walking or using hands.
This study tests whether combining brain stimulation with physical therapy can improve movement and muscle control in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Researchers will measure how the brain responds to this combined treatment.
This study tests whether a noninvasive electrical stimulation applied to the outside of the body, paired with physical therapy, can improve movement and walking for people with neurologic conditions. You may be asked to complete regular therapy sessions and simple movement tasks while the team measures your progress.
