Brain-computer interface with leg supports for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a brain-computer interface combined with special leg supports (pneumoorthoses) to help people recover leg movement after a stroke. It may be an option if you had a stroke in the upper part of the brain and have mild to moderate leg weakness.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old
- You had an ischemic stroke (blocked blood vessel) in the upper part of the brain, starting between 7 days and 24 months ago
- Your leg weakness from the stroke is mild to moderate, not too severe
- You are medically stable and can sit without help
- You can understand instructions and give your consent

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a light-based brain scanner (fNIRS) to understand how stroke affects arm movement. It may help find new ways to improve rehab.
This trial tests if combining a brain-computer interface (a device that reads brain signals) with virtual reality (an immersive computer environment) can help improve arm movement after a stroke. It might be a good fit if you had a stroke 6 to 24 months ago and still have some weakness in one arm.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface system that helps move your arm using electrical stimulation. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have lasting weakness in one arm.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface (a device implanted in the brain) to help people who have had a stroke regain arm movement. It may help if you have a single stroke that happened 6 to 18 months ago and still have trouble using your arm.
This trial tests a new brain-controlled device that sends electrical signals to your spinal cord to help restore arm and leg movement after a stroke. If you had a stroke at least 9 months ago and have weakness on one side of your body, this may help you regain function.
This trial tests whether a brain-computer interface (BCI) using near-infrared light can help stroke survivors improve hand and arm movement. You'll receive a type of brain training called neurofeedback during the study.
