What this study is about
Researchers are testing a new treatment called Spinal Cord Associative Plasticity (SCAP) to help people with spinal cord injuries regain arm and hand function. The trial will explore how electrical stimulation of the brain and spinal cord can strengthen signals between them, potentially improving movement.
Simplified from trial records by PatientMatch.
