Home-based exercise games for arm function in multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study tests a fun, video-game-like exercise program you can do at home to improve arm and hand strength and coordination. It's designed for people with multiple sclerosis who have some arm weakness but can still move around a bit.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have multiple sclerosis and score between 2.0 and 6.5 on the EDSS disability scale, with some arm or hand weakness.
- You can sit up by yourself and stand with or without help.
- Your arm and hand function is moderately to severely affected (ARAT score between 11 and 54).
- You can follow simple instructions (MMSE score of 23 or above).
- You have not had Botox in your arm or hand in the last 6 months and do not have epilepsy or other conditions that make exercise unsafe.

This study tests a type of arm exercise that uses a blood pressure cuff to limit blood flow, aiming to improve arm function in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help if you have some arm weakness but no recent relapses or blood clotting issues.
This trial tests if mixed reality (a blend of real and virtual environments) can improve arm and hand function in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help you move your arm better and with less stiffness.
This trial tests a special exercise program for the arms and hands in people with multiple sclerosis. The goal is to see if these exercises improve strength, coordination, and daily function.
This study looks at brain activity during task-oriented arm exercises to understand how neurorehabilitation works. It may help people with multiple sclerosis (MS) and healthy volunteers improve motor function.
This study tests a multimodal exercise program for people with multiple sclerosis. It aims to improve mobility, strength, and overall well-being through guided exercises you can do at home.
This study tests whether doing a virtual-reality–based training program at home can improve movement and daily use of the right arm and hand in people with multiple sclerosis. It may help reduce hand limitations by practicing targeted movement skills using an easy remote setup.
