Home glove helps stroke survivors use their arm
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a home-use glove (SaeboGlove®) that may help people who had a stroke grip and hold objects with their hand. It looks at how using the glove affects arm function and what factors help people stick with the program.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if a wearable device that helps open and close the hand can be used at home by people who have weakness after a stroke. It may help improve your ability to grasp objects like a glass or spoon.
This study tests whether a “closed-loop” neuroprosthesis (a hand-control device that responds to your movement) can improve hand grasping after a stroke. It may help people who cannot open or grab objects on their own, and who can safely participate during a short hospital stay.
This trial tests a high-tech glove that helps track and improve hand and arm movement after a stroke. It may be an option for people who had a stroke 1 to 6 months ago and have mild to moderate arm weakness.
This trial tests a hand training system that may help improve hand and arm movement after a stroke. If you have had a stroke and have trouble using your hand, this study might be able to help you regain some function.
This trial tests if using a soft robotic glove together with mirror therapy can help improve hand and arm movement in people recovering from a stroke. You would wear the glove on your affected hand while looking in a mirror at your unaffected hand, which may help retrain your brain.
This trial tests a wearable robotic hand brace to help you move your arm and hand after a stroke. It is for people who are at least 6 months past their first stroke, have some arm strength, and can have a caregiver help with home exercises.
