Voice-triggered robotic arm training for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether using your voice to trigger a robotic arm can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It uses a wearable exoskeleton robot that moves your arm when you speak, which may help your brain relearn how to move.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You were diagnosed with a stroke (either from a blood clot or bleeding in the brain) confirmed by a scan.
- Your stroke happened at least one month ago.
- You are between 20 and 80 years old.
- You have moderate to severe weakness in your arm or hand on the affected side.
- You are able to follow instructions and have no severe pain or stiffness in your affected arm.

This trial tests a robotic arm system that combines movement and thinking tasks to help people recover arm function after a first stroke. It is for people aged 40–80 who had a stroke within the last 2 weeks to 6 months and have some arm weakness but not too severe.
This study tests a robotic device that helps both arms work together to improve movement after a stroke. It may help people who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago and have some arm weakness.
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-assisted therapy can help improve arm and hand function in people who have had a stroke more than 3 months ago. The robot guides your arm through movements to help you regain strength and coordination.
This study tests if using a robot to help with arm exercises can improve arm movement in people who had a stroke less than 6 months ago. The therapy is for the weaker arm and aims to help you regain strength and control.
This study tests if combining arm exercises with two types of robot-assisted therapy helps people who have had a stroke improve their arm movement, daily activities, and quality of life. It is designed for individuals with moderate arm weakness.
