Optimizing walking rehabilitation after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to improve walking after a stroke. It focuses on helping people who have some arm weakness but can still walk on their own.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- This must be your first stroke (either from a blocked blood vessel or bleeding in the brain).
- You can walk on your own without another person's help, even if you use a cane or walker.
- You are able to walk for at least 10 minutes at a time.
- Your arm is not fully back to normal after the stroke.
- You can follow simple instructions during the study sessions.

This study tests if using a virtual reality headset during walking exercises can help people who had a stroke within the past 1 to 6 months improve their walking. You might be able to join if you can walk a bit but still need help or practice, and your doctor approves.
This study tests whether virtual reality (an immersive computer game) can help improve your walking after a stroke. You will use a VR headset while walking on a treadmill to make rehab more engaging and effective.
This trial tests whether virtual reality plus field (real-world) practice can improve walking and related thinking/vision skills after stroke. It may help you walk more safely and confidently in everyday community settings (like getting around outdoors).
This trial tests whether adding virtual reality to robot-assisted walking therapy helps people who have had a stroke and cannot walk. It is for patients who had a first stroke in the past 15 days to 6 months.
This study tests whether a combination of weight-supported walking equipment and virtual reality games can help stroke patients improve their walking ability and muscle control. The training aims to make walking safer and easier during recovery.
This study uses virtual reality to help people who have had a stroke improve their walking. It provides feedback on how you push off with your feet, which may strengthen your walking pattern.
