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.
- You haven't done intensive arm therapy in the last 3 months, and you don't have other arm problems like a broken bone or stiff joint.

This study tests two different schedules of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CI therapy) to see which better helps stroke survivors regain use of their weaker arm and hand. You may qualify if you can make small wrist and finger movements.
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 trial tests if a robot can help people recovering from a first stroke improve arm and hand movement. It compares robot-assisted therapy to standard rehabilitation exercises.
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.
