Study of upper-limb assistive device users
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how well upper-limb assistive devices (like robotic arms) work for people who use them and for their caregivers. You and your caregiver can help by sharing your experiences in video interviews.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a home-use glove (SaeboGlove®) that may help people who had a stroke grip and hold objects with their hand. It looks at how using the glove affects arm function and what factors help people stick with the program.
This study tests whether a “closed-loop” neuroprosthesis (a hand-control device that responds to your movement) can improve hand grasping after a stroke. It may help people who cannot open or grab objects on their own, and who can safely participate during a short hospital stay.
This study looks at how much burden (stress and day-to-day strain) ALS creates for both the patient and the main caregiver. It may help shape better ways to support families facing ALS over time.
This trial studies whether a robotic arm helper called ORTHOPUS Partner Arm can improve daily life for people who have trouble moving their arm. The robot gives extra support to make tasks easier.
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 trial tests a new training approach to help people who have lost or were born without an arm below the elbow or higher. The training uses sensory and movement exercises to improve how you control a prosthetic device.
