Virtual reality walking rehab for stroke patients who cannot walk
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding virtual reality to robot-assisted walking therapy helps people who have had a stroke and cannot walk. It is for patients who had a first stroke in the past 15 days to 6 months.
