Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trial
Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset for the Treatment of Chronic Stroke
Summary
The purpose of our study is to evaluate Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset stimulation (vCR) and its effects on motor ability within stroke patients. vCR will be administered with a device called the Vibrotactile (VT) Brain Glove. vCR is expected to provide patients with a non-invasive therapy to aid in recovery in stoke patients This study will include a dedicated sham that will aid in understanding true treatment effects from vCR
