Sponsor's own description
The goal of this interventional study is to investigate the therapeutic efficacy of non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation on upper limb function in chronic stroke patients . The main question is: •Is there a significant effect of non-invasive vagal nerve stimulation on upper limb motor function in stroke patients? Participants will be assigned into two groups. They will receive 12 sessions of true or sham transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation for 30 minutes immediately followed by 30 minutes of selected physical therapy program, three sessions per week for four weeks.
