Study shows bioelectronic medicine reduces spasticity in stroke patients
A clinical trial of an investigational, non-invasive medical device has shown that trans-spinal direct-current stimulation and peripheral nerve direct-current stimulation significantly reduced upper-limb spasticity in participants who had experienced a stroke. The treatment involves passing a direct electrical current across the spinal cord with a skin-surface electrode, known as trans-spinal direct-current stimulation (tsDCS), and adding […]
