FerraraAges 18–80 - NCT06906679Recruiting
Upper limb rehab for Parkinson's disease
This trial tests an upper limb rehabilitation program for people with Parkinson's disease. It aims to improve arm and hand function while on regular medication.
Cassino, FRAges 30–80 - NCT07156955Recruiting
Arm movement training after stroke
This trial tests a training program that uses your sense of arm position to improve arm movement after a stroke. It may help if you have trouble feeling where your arm is in space.

Home rehab for arm and hand after stroke
This trial tests a home-based exercise program to help people with chronic stroke improve arm and hand function. You would do exercises with a webcam, supervised remotely by a therapist.
Ferrara, Emilia-RomagnaAges 18 years+ - NCT06795230Recruiting
Arm exercise with blood flow cuffs for MS
This study tests a type of arm exercise that uses a blood pressure cuff to limit blood flow, aiming to improve arm function in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help if you have some arm weakness but no recent relapses or blood clotting issues.
Leganés, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06543277Recruiting
Nerve stimulation with hand therapy for spinal cord injury
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive nerve stimulation on the ear combined with arm and hand therapy to see if it can improve movement and function for people with neck-level spinal cord injury who still have some hand ability.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05615766Recruiting
Robotic arm exoskeleton rehab for people with arm weakness
This trial tests a robotic device that helps move your arm and hand during rehabilitation, with the goal of improving elbow and hand function. You may be a good fit if you have certain nerve/spinal cord injury levels and can still make some finger and elbow muscle movements at the start.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05665998Recruiting
Brain-controlled spinal stimulation for arm rehab after neck injury
This study tests a brain-controlled spinal stimulation approach to improve arm (upper limb) movement after a neck spinal cord injury. It may help people who have very limited arm function after a stable, traumatic injury, using frequent training and device-related checks.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18–75 - NCT04119544Recruiting
Mirror therapy rehab for arm after recent stroke
This trial tests whether mirror-based therapy can help improve movement in the affected hand and wrist after a stroke. It may help you regain upper-limb function when standard rehab alone isn’t enough.
Reims, Champagne-ArdenneAges 18–100 - NCT06876597Recruiting
Robotic arm therapy for stroke recovery
This trial tests a robotic arm system that combines movement and thinking tasks to help people recover arm function after a first stroke. It is for people aged 40–80 who had a stroke within the last 2 weeks to 6 months and have some arm weakness but not too severe.
FuzhouAges 40–80 - NCT07412899Enrolling by invitation
Virtual reality rehab for arm recovery after stroke
This trial tests a virtual reality system to help improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke. It looks at whether this technology is practical and helpful for recovery in Ethiopia.
Jimma, OromiyaAges 1.5 years+ - NCT06842095Recruiting
Stimulation therapy for stroke recovery
This trial tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique can improve arm movement recovery after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke affecting their arm and are at least 3 months past the stroke.
OxfordAges 18 years+ - NCT06496529Recruiting
Robot arm brace for stroke recovery
This study tests a robotic arm brace (exoskeleton) to help people who recently had a stroke and have trouble moving their arm. The goal is to see if the device can improve arm movement and daily function.
SantiagoAges 18–81 - NCT07285837Recruiting
Intensive arm rehab for kids with cerebral palsy
This study tests an intensive rehabilitation program for the upper limb (arm and hand) in children and teens with cerebral palsy. It aims to improve arm function and may help your child gain more control and independence.
Saint-Fargeau-Ponthierry, Île-de-France RegionAges 3–17 - NCT06773286Recruiting
Stimulation and therapy for hand function after spinal cord injury
This trial is testing a safe method of electrical stimulation through the skin (called transcutaneous stimulation) combined with physical therapy to help people who recently had a cervical spinal cord injury improve hand and arm function. It is designed for people who are still in the hospital rehab setting.
West Orange, New JerseyAges 18–75 - NCT06962397Recruiting
Using touch to improve recovery after stroke
This study tests if using a special device to feel different textures can help improve hand and arm recovery in people who have had a stroke.
MoscowAges 18–80 - NCT07643337Recruiting
Vagus Nerve Stimulation With Rehab to Improve Walking After Stroke
This study tests whether vagus nerve stimulation (a small device that stimulates a nerve in your neck) combined with rehabilitation therapy can help improve walking and leg function in stroke survivors. You would be one of the first to try this combination approach for stroke recovery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 22–80 - NCT07739264Recruiting
Robotic hand training for arm weakness
This study tests a robotic hand training system called ZEPU-SG1PLUS to help improve arm and hand function in people with various conditions like stroke or injury. It aims to see if this device can help you move better and do daily activities more easily.
DhakaAges 18–60 - NCT03631628Recruiting
Mirror therapy with gentle nerve stimulation for stroke arm recovery
This study tests whether combining mirror therapy with mild electrical nerve stimulation can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It may be an option if you can move your unaffected arm and have some shoulder and wrist movement on your affected side.
