Wrist brace design for children with brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study asks children aged 6 to 14 who currently use a wrist brace to help design a better one. The goal is to make braces that are more comfortable and easier to use.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 6 and 14 years old.
- You currently use a wrist brace for rehabilitation or daily help.
- You have a brain injury (like cerebral palsy) that affects movement.
- You can talk and communicate well enough to join interviews and design activities.
- You are already a patient at IRCCS Eugenio Medea in Bosisio Parini, Italy.
- Your parent or guardian must agree to you joining the study.
- You do not have skin allergies or behavioral or psychiatric issues that would interfere.

This study tests whether a robotic device called Bambini Kids can safely help children with cerebral palsy improve their walking and movement. The robot assists with gait training—guided walking practice—to see if it helps strengthen muscles and improve mobility.
This study is testing a soft robotic device that helps people move their arm and hand during rehabilitation. It is for people who have had a brain injury (like a stroke) and have lasting arm weakness, but healthy volunteers can also join.
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 study compares two types of ankle-foot braces (orthoses) to see which one helps kids with cerebral palsy move better, feel more comfortable, and take part in daily activities. Families will get help understanding their child's mobility options.
This trial tests a custom 3D-printed hand brace (orthosis) designed to help you use your hand better in everyday activities. You would wear it regularly to see if it improves your ability to do daily tasks like eating, dressing, or writing.
This trial tests whether a brain-computer interface (a device that reads brain signals) can help teenagers with cerebral palsy improve wrist movement in their affected arm. It may offer a new way to strengthen arm function without surgery or needles.
