Arm movement training with a smart device for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a new rehabilitation program that uses a machine to help your brain and arm work better together after a stroke. It may help you regain more movement and control in your affected arm.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a stroke at least 6 months ago that affects one side of your body.
- You are between 21 and 80 years old.
- You have some arm movement but not full use — your score on a standard arm function test must be between 10 and 59 out of 66.
- You have not had Botox injections in your affected arm in the past 3 months.
- You do not have severe stiffness in your shoulder or elbow (score of 3 or less on a spasticity scale).
- You do not have other arm injuries or conditions that affect movement, and you are able to consent to the study.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study uses a special muscle-sensing device to help people who had a stroke improve arm coordination. You will play movement games that guide you to use muscles more effectively, which may help you regain control.
This trial tests whether an AI-powered system can help improve arm movement in people who had a stroke 1 to 6 months ago. It uses electrical stimulation to activate muscles and may lead to better recovery.
This trial tests a wearable device and training task to help improve how stroke-affected arm muscles work together. It may help reduce unwanted “extra muscle effort” and improve control in people with recent or long-term stroke.
This trial tests a brain-computer interface system that helps move your arm using electrical stimulation. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago and have lasting weakness in one arm.
This trial tests a wearable robotic device that helps move your arm after a stroke. It is designed for people with significant arm weakness to improve their upper limb function.
This trial tests a wearable arm exoskeleton that uses your muscle signals to help rehab a weak arm after stroke. It may help improve arm movement by pairing training with this device, but you must meet specific movement, skin, and scan-safety requirements.
