Study Summary

This trialexplores using monitored brain stimulation to help children with cerebral palsy. 8-17 year olds with a history of stroke or bleed can participate for 5 days.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for children and young adults aged 8-21 with hemiparetic cerebral palsy due to perinatal stroke or brain bleed. They must have some movement in their fingers, be able to follow instructions, and give consent (or assent with guardian consent). Those with mild intellectual disabilities are also encouraged to join. Excluded are individuals without internet access, metal implants, recent seizures, certain medical conditions or treatments.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation device called Soterix 1x1 tDCS LTE Stimulator Model 1401 on children with cerebral palsy. It involves remote monitoring over five days of 'active' stimulation while participants interact with lab staff online after training.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While the description doesn't specify side effects, similar non-invasive brain stimulation may cause discomfort at the electrode site, headache, fatigue or nausea. Serious side effects are rare but can include seizure or skin irritation under the electrodes.
