RISE program to help stroke survivors sit less and move more
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if a program called RISE can help people who have had a stroke reduce the amount of time they spend sitting. The goal is to see if it helps improve recovery and daily life after returning home from the hospital.

This trial tests a home-based exercise program (via video or app) to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago and still have some physical weakness. It aims to improve strength and movement without needing to travel to a clinic.
This study tests a virtual (online) exercise program done mostly while seated to help people with long-term stroke challenges move more easily and safely. You may be eligible if you can use a walking aid, can stand up from a chair, and can do about 60 minutes of exercise while using a computer or tablet.
This study tests whether a remote (at-home) program that tracks your daily steps and includes support from someone you know can help you become more physically active after a stroke. Researchers want to see if this approach is practical and if it helps people who had a stroke 6+ months ago move more.
This trial tests a specific exercise to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago improve their ability to stand up from a chair. It may help you if you have some trouble but can still do the movement with minimal or no help.
