This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing deep brain stimulation (DBS)—a surgical treatment where doctors implant a small device that sends electrical pulses to a specific part of your brain—to help reduce muscle stiffness and improve motor function in people recovering from stroke. Researchers want to find out if this treatment works and which stimulation strength is most effective.
After a stroke, many people develop persistent muscle stiffness (spasticity) that doesn't improve with standard rehabilitation, making movement difficult and limiting recovery. This trial is exploring whether this brain stimulation approach could help patients who haven't seen improvement with other treatments.

You likely don't qualify if…
You would have surgery to implant a small brain stimulation device targeting an area near your cerebellum on the side of your body affected by the stroke. After surgery, you would try the device at different stimulation strengths (130 Hz, 70 Hz, and 30 Hz), spending 4–6 weeks at each setting combined with rehabilitation exercises. Between each phase, you would return to the clinic for evaluations to help doctors understand which stimulation strength works best for your recovery.
