High-tech rehab for acute neuromuscular diseases
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests a high-tech rehab program using robots and advanced tools to help people recover from acute neuromuscular diseases. It aims to see if this approach improves leg strength and mobility better than standard care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with a recent or quickly worsening neuromuscular disease such as Guillain-Barré syndrome or critical illness myopathy.
- Your symptoms started between 15 and 30 days ago.
- You have at least some leg muscle strength, enough to move your hip, knee, or ankle against gravity or with a little help.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you don't have other unstable medical conditions that would make it unsafe to participate.

This trial tests if a walking program combined with electrical stimulation can help people recover walking ability after critical illness. It is for patients who developed limb weakness in the hospital and were independent before their illness.
This trial studies whether an inpatient rehabilitation program can help people with Guillain-Barré syndrome. It may be useful if you need structured therapy and support during recovery.
This trial tests a robotic device, PhiCube, to help improve arm movement and thinking skills in adults with conditions like stroke, Parkinson's, or mild memory problems. The goal is to see if using this device can help with everyday tasks.
This study tests a high-tech rehabilitation program for people with long-term nerve and muscle conditions. It aims to help you improve your walking and daily function using advanced technology.
This trial studies ways to improve recovery of skeletal muscle in people who have been very sick in the ICU. It focuses on preventing problems with the body’s muscle “repair cells” after critical illness.
This trial examines how high-tech rehabilitation for the lower leg affects muscle MRI results. It might help researchers understand if this type of therapy improves muscle condition.
