Motor Priming and Training for Post-Stroke Arm Weakness
Study Summary
This trial is testing two different types of treatments to see which is more effective for people who have had a stroke. One treatment is motor priming, which is a warm-up for the brain that makes it better able to respond to treatment. The other is electrical stimulation priming, which uses low-intensity stimulation on the affected arm. The study team expects that the motor priming group will have more improvement.
