Robot-assisted arm exercise for cervical spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a robot that helps move your arms if you have a cervical spinal cord injury. It may improve arm strength and function through guided exercise.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can move your arms and hands without any extra weight on them.
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You can sit upright for one hour at a time.
- You can understand simple instructions for using a robot to help exercise your arms.
- You do not have any other physical condition that affects movement (like a broken arm or severe arthritis).
- You do not have an active infection that requires isolation in the hospital.

This trial compares robot-assisted arm therapy with standard occupational therapy to see which helps people with a recent cervical spinal cord injury regain hand and arm function better. You may be eligible if you are in early rehab and have limited use of your arms or hands.
This trial looks at an upper-arm exercise program for people with long-term (at least 6 months) spinal cord injuries in the neck area. It may help improve how you use your arms and manage stiffness, while also checking if the program is safe for participants.
This trial tests a robotic device that helps move your arm and hand during rehabilitation, with the goal of improving elbow and hand function. You may be a good fit if you have certain nerve/spinal cord injury levels and can still make some finger and elbow muscle movements at the start.
This study tests whether robot-guided therapy can improve arm and hand recovery after a stroke. You may be a candidate if your stroke was recent and you still have certain levels of arm weakness and movement.
This study tests a smart home-based upper limb rehabilitation program for people with stroke or spinal cord injury. It uses technology to help improve arm and hand movement.
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.
