Test whether video games help arm movement in Rett syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This trial looks at whether computer gaming can improve how well you can use your arms to control game actions in Rett syndrome. It checks whether the gaming tasks can be done safely based on your arm movement range.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Rett syndrome
- You can understand cause and effect (for example, your actions lead to results)
- Your arms have enough movement to complete the game control movements
- You do not have another orthopedic or nerve/muscle condition that affects shoulder movement

This study tests a home-based video game program designed to help people with stroke improve arm and hand movement. If you have some movement in your affected arm and can use a computer, this trial may help you regain function through engaging, game-like exercises.
This study tests whether a special video game can help children with neurological conditions improve use of their arms and hands. The game is designed to be fun and engaging while working on movements like reaching and gripping.
This study uses fun motion-sensing games (like active video games) to measure movement and coordination in people with Friedreich ataxia. It aims to see if these digital tools can track the disease at home, which might make future monitoring easier.
This trial tests whether playing active video games (exergaming) with your arms can help children and teens with spinal muscular atrophy improve their arm strength and function. If you join, you'll play specially designed games for a period of time, and researchers will see if it makes a difference.
This trial tests whether playing arm-focused video games on your own helps improve arm movement while you're in the hospital for stroke rehabilitation. You would play games that involve moving your arm and hand, and the goal is to see if this makes your recovery better.
This study tests if playing virtual reality games with a humanoid robot can help children with cerebral palsy improve arm function. Your child would play fun games while using their arm, which may strengthen movement and coordination.
