In-bed exercises for early recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a simple exercise program done in bed is safe and practical for people in the first few months after a stroke. It may help you start gentle lower-leg movement without needing to get fully out of bed right away.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a home-based program using a device called MindMotion GO to help people who have had a stroke improve arm movement. If you had a first stroke more than a month ago and still have trouble using your arm, this program may help you practice movements at home.
This trial tests if combining mental practice of movements (motor imagery) with core-strengthening exercises helps improve balance and sleep in people who had a stroke 6 months to 2 years ago.
This trial tests a home-based device that uses small electrical pulses to help activate weak leg muscles after a stroke. It aims to improve walking and leg strength, and uses a smartphone app for remote guidance.
This study tests a special walking feedback system (like a video game for your legs) for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It aims to improve walking quality, such as how smoothly and evenly you step.
