Vision tool to guide robot therapy for stroke arm posture
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a vision-based system that detects your arm and posture during robot-assisted upper-arm therapy after a prior stroke. It may help the robot guide treatment more safely and accurately based on your movements and positioning.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your stroke affected the brain areas supplied by the middle or front brain arteries (MCA or ACA).
- Your stroke happened between 6 months and 6 years ago.
- You currently have moderate to severe arm weakness (FMA-UE score 15–45).
- You can understand and follow 3-step instructions, and your thinking/memory screening (MMSE) is above 23.
- You have no major complications that would make robot arm use unsafe (for example: recent arm fractures, open wounds, fragile skin, or active infection needing contact precautions).

This study tests a robotic device called BurtVision to help people who had a stroke regain arm and hand movement, using fun interactive games. It is designed for people with lasting arm weakness and aims to improve their ability to use their arm in daily life.
This trial tests a robotics-based training program that helps people practice reaching with both the arm and hand, using real-time visual guidance. It may help improve how smoothly and accurately you can reach after stroke.
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.
This study tests whether robot-guided therapy can improve arm and hand recovery after a stroke. You may be a candidate if your stroke was recent and you still have certain levels of arm weakness and movement.
This trial tests a self-supervised arm therapy program for people who had a stroke at least two weeks ago. It aims to improve use of the weaker arm through intensive practice at home.
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.
