Home-based rehab program vs. standard physical therapy for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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 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.
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 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.
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 tests a home-based exercise program (via video or app) to help people who had a stroke more than 6 months ago and still have some physical weakness. It aims to improve strength and movement without needing to travel to a clinic.
This study tests a home-based program using a device called MindMotion GO to help people who have had a stroke improve arm movement. If you had a first stroke more than a month ago and still have trouble using your arm, this program may help you practice movements at home.
