Robotic therapy with mirror therapy for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if combining robotic therapy with mirror therapy can help improve arm function after a stroke. It is for people who had their first stroke 3 months to 2 years ago and have some but not full arm movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had your first stroke between 3 months and 2 years ago
- You are between 30 and 80 years old
- You have some arm movement but still need improvement
- You do not have severe arm stiffness (spasticity)
- You are able to follow instructions and have no memory or thinking problems
- You have not had a broken arm or hand in the last 3 months and are not in other research studies

This trial tests a mix of virtual reality (VR) and mirror therapy to help improve arm movement after a stroke. You may be asked to use the technology and give feedback, and the study may compare it with other care approaches to see if it helps more.
This trial tests whether combining sensory feedback with mirror therapy can help people who have had a stroke improve arm movement. It may be a good option if you are at least three months past your stroke and have some but limited arm 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 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 compares two types of arm rehabilitation after stroke: mirror therapy combined with either task-oriented (practicing daily activities) or impairment-oriented (targeting specific arm weaknesses) exercises. It aims to see which approach better improves arm and hand function.
This study tests whether using a special mirror system with augmented reality (computer-enhanced images) can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. The therapy uses reflection and visual tricks to help your brain relearn how to control the weaker arm.
