Soft robotic arm device for rehabilitation after brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a soft robotic device to help people with upper limb weakness from a neurological disorder, such as a brain injury, practice arm movements. The goal is to see if it can help with rehabilitation and daily assistance.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 to 80 years old.
- You have had a brain injury (like from a stroke or trauma) at least 6 months ago.
- You have ongoing weakness or difficulty moving one or both arms.
- You are medically stable and can sit or stand for the testing session.
- Your thinking and memory are mostly intact (score 24 or higher on a standard test).
- You are not pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study.

This trial uses a social robot and artificial intelligence to help children with acquired brain injury do rehabilitation exercises at the hospital or at home. The robot guides them through arm and hand activities to improve movement and recovery.
This trial tests a wearable robot that helps move your arm. It's for people recovering from a stroke or brachial plexus injury who still have some arm muscle strength but need extra support.
This trial tests a high-tech rehabilitation program using an exoskeleton to help people recover arm movement after a stroke. It aims to improve multiple areas of function, like strength and daily activities.
This trial tests a robotic device that helps move your arm and hand during rehabilitation, with the goal of improving elbow and hand function. You may be a good fit if you have certain nerve/spinal cord injury levels and can still make some finger and elbow muscle movements at the start.
This trial tests a wearable robotic device (ExoNET) that helps stroke survivors with hand weakness. It aims to see if the device is safe and helpful for people who had a stroke at least 8 months ago and still have trouble using their arm and hand.
This study tests a robotic arm brace (exoskeleton) to help people who recently had a stroke and have trouble moving their arm. The goal is to see if the device can improve arm movement and daily function.
