Study of finger exercises for recovery after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether certain exercises can help people who have had a stroke regain the ability to straighten their fingers. It may help if you have limited finger movement and have not had recent Botox.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Had a stroke more than 6 months ago
- Have little or no ability to straighten your fingers
- No significant tightness in finger or wrist muscles
- Able to lay your hand flat on a table
- No recent Botox injections to finger or wrist muscles (within 6 months)

This study tests whether a hand exercise program can improve movement in people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago. It aims to help you regain control of your hand and fingers.
This study tests a therapy using small electrical pulses to help people who have had a stroke move their arm and hand better. It is for people who already receive Botox injections for muscle tightness and have some movement in their arm.
This study tests whether non-invasive brain stimulation plus a hand/arm electrical stimulation device can improve how well your stroke-affected arm and hand move during therapy tasks. You would take part in screening and then receive these combined rehab approaches to see if motor control improves.
This study compares two types of arm exercises to help improve arm and hand movement after a stroke. It aims to find which exercise approach is better for recovery.
This trial compares two types of hand exercises to see which one helps you regain hand movement and control better after a stroke. It focuses on people in the sub-acute phase (early recovery) who have some voluntary hand movement.
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.
