Smart arm rehab for stroke and spinal cord injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 79 years old for stroke, or 20 to 65 for spinal cord injury.
- You have had a stroke (bleeding or clot) or an incomplete spinal cord injury at a specific neck level (C5 or C6).
- Your arm or hand movement is limited due to your condition.
- You have not had surgery on your shoulder, elbow, or wrist.
- You do not have another muscle or nerve disease that affects movement.
- You can complete a thinking and memory test with a good score (MoCA 26+ for stroke, MMSE 25+ for spinal cord injury).

This study tests new technologies to help people recover arm movement after a stroke. You would use special devices at home with a caregiver's help, and the team will see how well they work for you.
This trial tests a robotic arm system that combines movement and thinking tasks to help people recover arm function after a first stroke. It is for people aged 40–80 who had a stroke within the last 2 weeks to 6 months and have some arm weakness but not too severe.
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.
This study tests whether a robot-guided therapy program can help people regain arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. You may be able to join if you are within a month of a first stroke on one side and have specific levels of arm and hand recovery.
This study tests whether a robot-assisted therapy program can help people recover arm and hand movement after a recent stroke. If you had a stroke less than 3 months ago and have some weakness in your arm but can still move it a little, this trial may help you regain function.
This study tests whether using a robot at home, with help from a carer, can improve arm movement after a stroke. It's for adults 21 to 90 years old who had a stroke at least 28 days ago and have moderate arm weakness.
