Using robots and virtual reality for stroke rehab on a treadmill
This trial tests whether robotic devices, virtual reality, or augmented reality can improve walking and balance during treadmill training for people who have had a single stroke. It aims to make rehab more engaging and effective.
Kaposvár, Somogy CountyAges 18–99 - NCT06858358Recruiting
Robot vs. standard knee replacement for severe arthritis
This trial compares a robot-assisted knee replacement technique to the standard approach for people with severe knee arthritis. It aims to see which method leads to better recovery and outcomes.
Cluj-Napoca, ClujAges Any age - NCT07332806Recruiting
When to remove the breathing tube after robot surgery
This study looks at whether removing the breathing tube in the operating room versus the recovery room affects how quickly the operating room is ready for the next surgery. If you are having robot-assisted surgery with general anesthesia, you may be able to join.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07329075Recruiting
Soft robot for hand rehab after stroke
This study tests a soft, wearable robot to help people who had a stroke regain hand and finger movement. It is designed for those whose stroke happened at least 6 months ago, who still have some muscle activity in their hand, and who can sit for short periods.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT07331363Recruiting
Robot ultrasound for breast cancer screening
This trial tests whether using a robot to perform breast ultrasound can help find cancer early. You would use a smartphone to guide the screening, and the study compares this method to standard screening.
Xiantao, HubeiAges 35–64 - NCT07316517Recruiting
Robot-assisted hernia repair with Versius system
This study tests whether a robot-assisted device called Versius can be used safely and effectively for inguinal hernia repair surgery. If you are already scheduled for minimally invasive hernia repair, you may be able to join.
MilanAges 22 years+ - NCT07321145Recruiting
Robot vs. Endoscopic Breast-Conserving Surgery
This trial looks back at medical records to compare two types of breast-conserving surgery (robot-assisted vs. endoscopic) for women with early-stage breast cancer. It's for women who are good candidates for keeping their breast and who want a less invasive surgical option.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07298486Enrolling by invitation
Robotic glove to help with grip and hand function in ALS
This trial tests whether a robotic glove can improve quality of life, grip strength, and fine motor control in people with ALS. If you have trouble with hand strength or dexterity, this device may help you regain some function.
Davie, FloridaAges 18–99 - NCT07299006Recruiting
Study of a robot to help manage pain during IV placement in children
This trial tests whether a friendly robot named Paro can help reduce pain and anxiety in young children when they need an IV placed. If your child is between 1 and 7 years old and needs an IV, this study may help make the procedure less stressful.
BrestAges 1–7 - NCT07282938Recruiting
Robot hand and electrical stimulation for hand function after stroke
This test combines a soft robotic hand and electrical stimulation to help improve hand movement in people recovering from a stroke. It may benefit stroke survivors who have some ability to extend their fingers and are in the early months of recovery.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–65 - NCT07287059Recruiting
Wearable robot and virtual reality for hand recovery after stroke
This study tests if combining a wearable robotic glove with virtual reality exercises can help improve hand function in people who have had a stroke. It may be a good fit if you have some movement in your hand and arm but need more help.
Istanbul, BeykozAges 30–60 - NCT06884553Recruiting
Robotic arm therapy vs. standard therapy for chronic stroke

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for robotics?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 446 recruiting robotics studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a robotics trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a robotics trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
