Interventional Study of FlowOx 2.0 in People with Multiple Sclerosis
The study is designed to assess the effects of intermittent negative pressure treatment (using FlowOx 2.0) on spasticity in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS) over six months. Involving 56 participants, it includes a comparison of the actual device and a sham treatment in a randomized and controlled setup.
