Studying a therapy for arm movement in kids with stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests whether a therapy called CHRIST can help children who've had a stroke improve the movement and function of their affected arm and hand.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 7 and 12 years old.
- You had a stroke (either from a clot or a bleed) that affects your arm movement.
- A parent or guardian agrees to let you join, and you agree too.
- You do not have severe learning or behavior problems that would make therapy difficult.
- Your seizures are under control, and you don't have any other health issues that make exercise unsafe.

This study tests a digital therapy program to help people who have had a stroke improve arm and hand movement. It is for people who still have some arm function and can come to the lab often for 3 weeks.
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 whether robot-guided therapy can improve arm and hand recovery after a stroke. You may be a candidate if your stroke was recent and you still have certain levels of arm weakness and movement.
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 trial tests a self-supervised arm therapy program for people who had a stroke at least two weeks ago. It aims to improve use of the weaker arm through intensive practice at home.
This study tests a new combination treatment for people who had a stroke more than six months ago and still have arm weakness. It uses a gentle electrical current on the head (tDCS) along with a therapy that encourages use of the affected arm. The goal is to improve arm movement and daily function.
