tDCS + Physical Therapy
for Stroke Recovery
This research study is to find out if brain stimulation at different dosage level combined with an efficacy-proven rehabilitation therapy can improve arm function. The stimulation technique is called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). The treatment uses direct currents to stimulate specific parts of the brain affected by stroke. The adjunctive rehabilitation therapy is called "modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy" (mCIMT). During this therapy the subject will wear a mitt on the hand of the arm that was not affected by a stroke and force to use the weak arm. The study will test 3 different doses of brain stimulation in combination with mCIMT to find out the most promising one.

MyoPro-Assisted Therapy
for Stroke
This study will evaluate the effects of combining motor learning-based therapy with use of the MyoPro , a wearable exoskeletal myoelectrically controlled orthotic device. MyoPro uses electromyographic (EMG) signals from the weak muscles to assist movement of the user's affected arm. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial is to study the efficacy of using MyoPro in motor learning-based therapy for individuals with chronic stroke (>6 months post) with severe upper limb motor deficits (Fugl-Meyer for Upper Limb score less than 30) compared with a similar dose of motor learning-based therapy alone. The secondary objectives are to evaluate neuroplasticity mechanisms, identify biomarkers of greater response to the intervention, and explore cost-effectiveness.
