Brain-signal device for stroke arm rehabilitation
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a device that uses brain activity signals to trigger stroke arm therapy. It may help improve how well your upper arm and hand function by timing the training to your brain’s patterns.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a stroke, with persistent arm/hand weakness (for the main stroke group)
- If you are in the moderate-impairment group: your dominant right hand arm has limited movement, with specific scoring ranges
- You cannot have any arm/hand conditions or injuries that limited use before your stroke (for some stroke groups)
- You must not be allergic to electrode gel, surgical tape, or metal used with the device
- You must be able to have brain imaging (MRI) and have no MRI contraindications for your group
- You must not be pregnant or able to become pregnant during the study

This study tests a device that uses mild electrical pulses and augmented reality (a computer overlay on real life) to help people who have arm or hand weakness after a recent stroke or brain injury regain movement.
This trial tests a device that uses gentle electrical stimulation and visual cues to help improve arm and hand movement in people who have had a stroke, brain injury, or spinal cord injury. It may help you regain some function in your affected limb.
This study tests a therapy using small electrical pulses to help people who have had a stroke move their arm and hand better. It is for people who already receive Botox injections for muscle tightness and have some movement in their arm.
This study uses a safe brain-imaging technology called fNIRS to measure how your brain changes during arm recovery after stroke. The goal is to better understand how rehabilitation helps your brain reorganize and improve arm function.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface system that helps move your arm using electrical stimulation. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have lasting weakness in one arm.
This trial combines brain stimulation with a special cycling exercise and computer-based thinking tasks to help improve arm and hand strength after a stroke. It may help you regain movement and function in your daily life.
