Robotic hand therapy after recent stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial is testing a glove-like device to help people who had a recent stroke (2 days to 2 months ago) regain movement and feeling in their hand. It may be a good fit if your hand muscles are very weak and you can comfortably wear the device.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke between 2 days and 2 months ago.
- Your arm or hand muscles are weak, between 0 (no movement) and 3 out of 5.
- You have trouble moving or feeling your fingers (one or both hands).
- Your hand can fit comfortably into a glove-like therapy device.
- You are not considered a vulnerable population (like pregnant women or prisoners).
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

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 a soft, wearable robot to help people who had a stroke regain hand and finger movement. It is designed for those whose stroke happened at least 6 months ago, who still have some muscle activity in their hand, and who can sit for short periods.
This study tests whether a special robotic device can help people regain hand movement after a recent first stroke. It's for people who are already in a stroke rehab program and have hand weakness but can still move their fingers a bit.
This study tests if combining a wearable robotic glove with virtual reality exercises can help improve hand function in people who have had a stroke. It may be a good fit if you have some movement in your hand and arm but need more help.
This trial tests if combining a soft robotic glove with thinking-based hand exercises helps stroke survivors regain hand movement better than exercises alone. If you had your first stroke 6 to 12 weeks ago and have some arm weakness, this study might be a fit.
This trial tests whether a home robot can help people recover hand function after a recent stroke. You would use the device on your own at home, without a therapist present.
