Testing sleep timing to improve arm learning after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how sleep may affect how well people relearn arm movements after a stroke. If you’re within a month of a stroke that affected your arm, your participation could help researchers understand better ways to support recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Have had a stroke that affected your arm within the last month
- Be able to give informed consent, or have a family member/carer able to advise if needed
- Not have another neurological movement condition (for example, Parkinson’s disease or multiple sclerosis)

This study tests a sleep-improvement program (Sleepio) to see if better sleep can help people learn and recover after a stroke that affects the arm. You may be able to join if you’re recently out of hospital and can use the internet reliably.
This trial tests a hand training system that may help improve hand and arm movement after a stroke. If you have had a stroke and have trouble using your hand, this study might be able to help you regain some function.
This study tests a new rehabilitation program for people who have had a stroke within the last 6 months. It focuses on improving arm weakness using special therapy techniques.
This trial looks at how being left- or right-handed affects arm recovery after a recent stroke. It aims to help personalize rehabilitation for better outcomes.
This early-stage trial tests a special exercise approach meant to “prime” the brain and improve arm movement after a stroke. You may be eligible if you’re 6+ months out from a one-sided stroke and can safely do an exercise test.
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.
