Remote rehab vs in-person rehab for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study compares doing brain-training exercises at home on a digital device versus going to a clinic after a stroke. It aims to see which method better helps improve memory, thinking, and daily function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 50 and 80 years old.
- You had a stroke (either from a clot or a bleed) at least a few weeks ago.
- Your thinking and memory are mildly to moderately affected (based on a memory test score between 10 and 25).
- For the at-home rehab group, you need to have a smartphone, tablet, or computer and be able to use it.

This study compares a home-based motor relearning program with standard physical therapy delivered through video calls, to see which helps stroke survivors improve movement and function better. It may be a good option if you had a stroke 3 to 12 months ago and have access to a device with internet.
This trial compares two ways of helping stroke survivors regain arm and hand function: therapy done remotely online versus in-person at a clinic. Both use a specialized approach called constraint-induced movement therapy, which encourages use of the weaker arm. The study aims to see which method works better for people in the first 6 months after stroke.
This trial tests whether telerehabilitation using digital tools can help stroke survivors recover better. It aims to see if remote therapy is effective during the months after a stroke.
This trial tests a home-based program that combines physical therapy with computer-based cognitive exercises for stroke survivors. It aims to see if this combined approach improves recovery more than standard physical therapy alone.
This trial studies a home-based exercise and training program delivered by telerehabilitation (remote care) for people with mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson’s disease, or stroke. It may help improve day-to-day thinking and movement skills by supporting you with structured practice from home.
This study tests a home-based therapy program delivered by video calls to help people recovering from a stroke improve arm function. It is designed for those with moderate arm weakness about 4 months after their stroke.
