Combined Brain and Hand Stimulation to Improve Hand Function in Individuals With Moderate to Severe Chronic Stroke: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial...2020 AOTA Annual Conference & Expo

Date Presented 03/26/20 We conducted a phase I pilot randomized controlled trial examining the preliminary efficacy of combining brain and hand stimulation to improve hand function in individuals with moderate to severe chronic stroke. Our findings suggest that the combined brain and hand stimulation shows promise in improving hand movement, function, and participation in daily tasks in this population. Future studies are warranted to examine the efficacy of this intervention. Primary Author and Speaker: Amit Sethi Contributing Authors: Alvaro Pascual-Leone, Emiliano Santarnecchi
