Home hand therapy device for recovery after injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a home-based hand therapy device (ReHandyBot) and a smartphone app to help you practice hand movements on your own. It's for people recovering from a stroke, brain injury, or orthopedic issues like surgery, and you can do the exercises in the comfort of your home.
