NCT06716112
Brief Summary:
In this mechanistic study, 40 individuals with chronic stroke will be implanted with a small vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) device. The study will use a randomized, blinded, crossover design to deliver two conditions in six-week blocks: active VNS or sham VNS, each paired with upper extremity (UE) motor rehabilitation. Assessment visits will occur before and after each block, and will examine neural pathway strength, functional connectivity, and motor and non-motor behaviors. Investigators will test for VNS-induced changes in motor, cognitive, and affective systems, and will identify biomarkers predictive of clinical response.
