Clinical trials: Cortical Plasticity
Cervical Spinal Cord Injury, Tetraplegia/Tetraparesis
Spinal Cord Associative Plasticity Study
Spinal cord associative plasticity (SCAP) is a combined cortical and spinal electrical stimulation technique developed to induce recovery of arm and hand function in spinal cord injury.

Chronic Neck Pain, Musculoskeletal Pain
Pain Related Variables
Chronic neck pain is a common problem among the general population. Patients with chronic neck pain used health care services twice as much as the population on average, mainly due to intense pain intensity.

- Chronic Neck Pain, Musculoskeletal Pain, Pain Modulation, Cortical Plasticity
- Trial name
- NCT06007443
- Testing
- pain related variables assessment
- Where
- Turkey (Türkiye)
- Volunteers
- 46 people
