Robot-assisted rehab for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares standard rehabilitation with therapy that uses robots and other digital tools to help people regain movement after a stroke. It's for people who had a first stroke within the last 6 months and have some arm, leg, or balance problems.

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 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 trial studies whether robot-assisted therapy can help people who had a stroke at least 3 months ago improve their arm and hand function. It may be a good option if you are ready for rehab and do not have certain complications like severe hand stiffness or recent injections.
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 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 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.
