Cerebellar-spinal brain stimulation for chronic stroke mobility
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the back of the head and spine can improve walking and movement for people who have had a stroke more than six months ago.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a non-invasive treatment called trans-spinal magnetic stimulation to help improve walking and movement in people who have had a stroke. It is for those with trouble walking and are at least 6 months past their stroke.
This trial tests whether a new type of electrical stimulation on the back can help improve walking in people with incomplete spinal cord injury. It uses a device that sends small currents through the skin to the spinal cord.
This trial is testing whether a gentle electrical current (tsDCS) applied to the back of the head, along with physical therapy, can help improve movement and function in people with an incomplete spinal cord injury that happened more than a year ago.
This study tests a gentle electrical stimulation applied to the back of the head to see if it can improve walking and leg movement in people who have had a stroke. It may help you move better and regain function.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp (called tDCS) can improve your ability to walk while doing a second task, like talking or carrying something. It is for people who have had a stroke and can walk on their own.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment can help improve walking ability in people who have had a stroke. It compares the effects of the treatment in stroke survivors and healthy adults to see if it can enhance recovery.
