Pilot Trial of Robotic Hand Therapy After Stroke (NCT07706621)
Robotic-Assisted Hand Therapy for Neurorehabilitation in Adults With Hand Sensorimotor Impairments Following a Stroke: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This pilot study will test whether the GRIP program-a soft robotic glove with virtual-reality training-can improve hand and arm function in adults undergoing inpatient rehabilitation after a recent stroke. About 20 participants will be randomly assigned to either the GRIP program or action-observation therapy with education, in addition to usual care. The study will assess motor improvement, safety, and acceptability over approximately six weeks.
