Official title
A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Control Multicenter Pivotal Study of the Smartpatch Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) System for the Treatment of Chronic Post-Stroke Shoulder Pain
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine if electrical stimulation (small levels of electricity) reduces post-stroke shoulder pain. This study involves a device called the Smartpatch System. The Smartpatch System delivers mild electrical stimulation to the muscles in the shoulder. The Smartpatch System includes a small wire (called a "Lead") that is placed through the skin into the muscle of the shoulder. It also includes a device worn on the body that delivers stimulation (called the Smartpatch Stimulator).
