Testing a sensor tool to measure arm movement in stroke survivors
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses a special sensor to measure how well you can move your arm after a stroke. It aims to see if this sensor tool is as good as the standard test doctors use.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You had a stroke that made it harder to move your arm or hand.
- You are willing to join the study and sign a consent form.
- You do not have other serious medical conditions that affect your movement.
- You can see and hear well enough to follow instructions (with glasses or hearing aids if needed).
- You do not have severe problems with understanding or memory that would make it hard to follow directions.

This study tests whether wearing small activity monitors on both wrists for 3 days can better measure how stroke affects daily two-handed tasks. It aims to improve understanding of real-world arm function.
This study tests a new computer system designed to measure and help improve arm and hand function in people with stroke, Parkinson's disease, ALS, or memory problems. The system adjusts itself to each person's abilities and may help guide rehabilitation exercises.
This study uses robotic devices to understand how your arm learns movement after a recent stroke. It may help researchers improve stroke rehabilitation by figuring out what kinds of practice work best.
This Phase 2 study tests a new wrist sensor system that tracks arm movement and gives feedback using a phone or tablet. It aims to improve daily use of the weaker (hemiparetic) arm in people with a prior stroke.
This study checks if new guidelines for placing sensors on leg muscles work well in people who have had a stroke. It could help improve how we measure muscle activity during walking and other movements.
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.
