Hand exoskeleton training for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a robotic hand device (exoskeleton) can help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago improve hand movement. It may benefit those who still have some hand function but struggle to open their affected hand.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 years old or older.
- You had a stroke more than 6 months ago, confirmed by a brain scan (MRI or CT).
- You can move your fingers on the affected hand a little bit (score of 1 or more on finger extension).
- You have trouble opening your affected hand.
- You can follow instructions and communicate clearly.
- You are not currently getting or planning to get antispasticity medications, and you are not in other physical or occupational therapy.

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 robot-guided therapy can improve arm and hand recovery after a stroke. You may be a candidate if your stroke was recent and you still have certain levels of arm weakness and movement.
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 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 a wearable robotic device (ExoNET) that helps stroke survivors with hand weakness. It aims to see if the device is safe and helpful for people who had a stroke at least 8 months ago and still have trouble using their arm and hand.
This study tests a robotic arm brace (exoskeleton) to help people who recently had a stroke and have trouble moving their arm. The goal is to see if the device can improve arm movement and daily function.
