Virtual Reality with Sights, Sounds, and Touch for Stroke Recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special virtual reality program that uses sights, sounds, and touch can help people who have had a stroke move their leg better. You might qualify if you had a first stroke, have trouble moving your leg, and can walk a little bit with help.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke for the first time, confirmed by a doctor

- You are between 18 and 85 years old
- You can walk a short distance with a little help from someone or a walker
