PULSE patient panel

This project is looking to establish a patient panel to help develop a grant application for a study investigating RSS, a method of rehabilitation for people who have experienced stroke.

RSS (repetitive sensory stimulation) uses a unique glove to provide an electrical stimulus and has the potential to improve arm function after stroke. The proposed study will investigate the effectiveness of RSS and how it can be provided to patients soon after they experience stroke to maximise improvements.

The PULSE (rePetitive Upper Limb SEnsory stimulation early after a stroke) project is being carried out by a team of researchers at the University of Central Lancashire.
