Study Summary

This trial aims to see how using a special glove that delivers vibrations can help improve symptoms of muscle stiffness in patients with incomplete spinal cord injuries. The glove provides a non-invasive treatment option that may be

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with incomplete spinal cord injuries experiencing muscle spasms and spasticity. Participants should be able to visit the lab four times over three months. Specific inclusion and exclusion criteria details are not provided, but typically these would outline health conditions or factors that qualify or disqualify someone from participating.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing a non-invasive treatment called vibrotactile Coordinated Reset (vCR), delivered through the Stanford CR Glove. This alternative therapy aims to reduce spasticity symptoms in patients, potentially offering benefits over current treatments like oral medication or deep brain stimulation.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since vCR is a non-invasive intervention using tactile stimulation, side effects might be minimal compared to drug therapies or surgical options. However, specific side effects are not listed here and would depend on individual patient responses.
