Cycling therapy for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a special cycling exercise program designed to help people who have had a stroke regain arm and leg movement. It aims to see if this focused cycling therapy can improve recovery and reduce healthcare costs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You had a single stroke (either from a clot or a bleed) 3 to 9 months ago.

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 whether intensive group-based exercise training helps people recover better after stroke. You'll participate in structured exercise sessions designed to improve strength, balance, and walking ability.
This study aims to develop a walking exercise program for people who have had a stroke and cannot walk on their own. It will test a treadmill-based program to help improve walking ability.
This study tests whether a short, high-intensity interval exercise program is safe and practical for people who are recovering from a stroke during inpatient rehabilitation. You will be asked to do short bursts of exercise on a recumbent stepper, with rest periods, while your heart rate and blood pressure are monitored.
