Combined mirror therapy and soft robotic glove for hand recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if using a soft robotic glove together with mirror therapy can help improve hand and arm movement in people recovering from a stroke. You would wear the glove on your affected hand while looking in a mirror at your unaffected hand, which may help retrain your brain.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 70 years old
- You had your first stroke (either from a clot or bleeding) confirmed by a CT or MRI scan
- Your arm and hand have moderate weakness (needs to be assessed by the study team)
- You can understand simple instructions and sit by yourself for at least 30 minutes
- You are medically stable and willing to follow the study plan

This study tests if combining robotic therapy with mirror therapy can help improve arm function after a stroke. It is for people who had their first stroke 3 months to 2 years ago and have some but not full arm movement.
This trial tests whether mirror-based therapy can help improve movement in the affected hand and wrist after a stroke. It may help you regain upper-limb function when standard rehab alone isn’t enough.
This study tests whether combining mirror therapy with mild electrical nerve stimulation can help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It may be an option if you can move your unaffected arm and have some shoulder and wrist movement on your affected side.
This trial tests whether task-based mirror therapy can help improve shoulder and hand function in people who have had a stroke less than 6 months ago. It focuses on those with moderate to severe stroke symptoms but without severe muscle stiffness or cognitive issues.
This trial tests if combining a soft robotic glove with thinking-based hand exercises helps stroke survivors regain hand movement better than exercises alone. If you had your first stroke 6 to 12 weeks ago and have some arm weakness, this study might be a fit.
This study tests whether using a mirror during arm exercises helps improve movement after a stroke. It compares two types of rehab programs to see which works better.
