EEG vs. repeated robot therapy for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study compares two ways to help arm movement after a stroke: one uses an EEG cap to time therapy with your brain signals, and the other uses a robot that moves your arm repeatedly. It aims to see which approach works better for people who have had a stroke.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a stroke at some point in your life.
- You are between 19 and 85 years old.
- You do not have a severe, uncontrolled medical problem (like serious heart disease).
- Your blood pressure, diabetes, and kidney health are under control.
- You can follow simple instructions to perform motor tasks (like moving your arm on command) – or a doctor determines you can.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a robotic arm system that combines movement and thinking tasks to help people recover arm function after a first stroke. It is for people aged 40–80 who had a stroke within the last 2 weeks to 6 months and have some arm weakness but not too severe.
This trial tests if combining two types of electrical stimulation with a robotic device can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It may be a good option if you have some movement in your arm but not full strength.
This study compares standard rehabilitation with therapy that uses robots and other digital tools to help people regain movement after a stroke. It's for people who had a first stroke within the last 6 months and have some arm, leg, or balance problems.
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 studies whether robot-assisted therapy can help people who had a stroke at least 3 months ago improve their arm and hand function. It may be a good option if you are ready for rehab and do not have certain complications like severe hand stiffness or recent injections.
This study tests a passive robot (a device that moves without force) to help stroke survivors regain arm movement. It aims to see if this approach is safe and helpful for people with arm weakness after a stroke.
