EXOPULSE Mollii Suit, Motor Function & Multiple Sclerosis

The Effects of EXOPULSE Mollii Suit on Motor Functions in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis (EXOSEP Study)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Jun 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Spasticity is a frequent and debilitating symptom in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). It can alter the patients' balance, mobility, as well as their quality of life. The available therapeutic strategies for treating spasticity and related symptoms are usually faced with limited efficacy and numerous side effects. For these reasons, non invasive stimulation techniques, namely transcutaneous stimulation by means of EXOPULSE Mollii suit, might be of help in this context.
