Post-stroke Pain tAN-fMRI

Investigating the Feasibility, Efficacy, and Renormalization of Pain-Regulation Brain Circuits Underlying At-Home Transcutaneous Auricular Neuromodulation (tAN) for Managing Chronic Post-Stroke Pain


Sponsor

Medical University of South Carolina

Enrollment

24 participants

Start Date

Jan 8, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore whether 4 weeks of at-home transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) can reduce chronic pain after a stroke. Investigators will recruit up to 24 participants with chronic post-stroke upper extremity pain. The goal is to determine if there is a pain reduction after ear stimulation.


Eligibility
