Brain-training therapy to improve arm movement after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a learning-and-recovery approach meant to help people regain arm and hand control after a long-term stroke. It targets patients with specific movement and brain-connection patterns so the training can be safely done.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- Your stroke was at least 8 months ago, and it mainly affected the brain’s movement area (primary motor cortex)
- You have weakness on one side of the body (hemiparesis), not both sides
- You can move both your shoulder and elbow at least somewhat
- You must be able to understand the tasks and give informed consent

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 study tests whether brain stimulation and robotic/arm training can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke. It may help strengthen movement and coordination by targeting brain pathways related to arm control.
This study tests if using a robot to help with arm exercises can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke less than 6 months ago. The therapy is for the weaker arm and aims to help you regain strength and control.
This study tests whether a robot-assisted therapy program can help people recover arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. If you had a stroke less than 3 months ago and have some weakness in your arm but can still move it a little, this trial may help you regain function.
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 trial tests an upper-limb (arm/hand) rehabilitation program guided by brain activity signals, started soon after a stroke. It may help people with early incomplete arm recovery improve hand and arm function.
