This study tests a rehabilitation program that uses multiple technologies to help people recover mobility after a stroke. About 62 participants will use the program, and their progress will be compared to similar patients receiving standard care. The goal is to see if the tech-ba…

This study tests whether a virtual reality system called VALOR can help stroke survivors improve arm and hand function by doing therapy exercises at home. About 48 adults who had a stroke at least 3 months ago will either use the VR program or receive standard care. The goal is t…

This study compares virtual reality-based gait training to standard physical therapy for 40 people with walking asymmetry due to neurological conditions. Participants will undergo a 2-week program, with daily sessions up to 2 hours. The goal is to see if VR can improve walking sp…

This study tests whether an intensive program combining physical therapy, counseling, and nutrition advice can help people with multiple sclerosis move better, think clearer, and feel better overall. About 26 adults with MS who can attend regular sessions will take part. The goal…

This study compares two types of braces after an ankle fracture: a standard rigid walker and a lighter ankle stirrup. Researchers want to see if the stirrup helps people return to physical activity faster without harming healing. About 280 adults with ankle fractures will wear an…

This study looks at whether adding a special shock wave treatment (called phonophoresis) to standard physical therapy can help people with shoulder impingement syndrome. The goal is to see if it reduces pain, improves shoulder function, and increases space in the shoulder joint. …

This study tests a new virtual reality therapy that combines mirror therapy with focused attention on objects to help stroke survivors improve arm movement. About 54 adults who had a stroke more than six months ago will try one session of this therapy. Researchers will measure ch…

This study tests whether adding artificial intelligence-driven virtual reality (VR) therapy to standard rehabilitation helps stroke patients regain arm movement better than standard therapy alone. Fifty adults hospitalized after a recent stroke will be randomly assigned to receiv…

This study will test a new type of exercise called eccentric cycling for people with multiple sclerosis (MS). The goal is to see if this cycling method can improve muscle strength, walking ability, fatigue, and quality of life better than standard training. The study plans to enr…

This study looks at whether training therapists to use powered mobility devices (like small motorized chairs) can help young children with cerebral palsy (ages 1-2) move around and join in activities at home and in early childhood settings. About 24 children and their families wi…

This study looks at whether giving trauma patients personalized information and a digital follow-up option can improve their recovery. About 256 adults admitted to a Norwegian trauma center will take part. They will answer surveys and some will use a digital outpatient follow-up …

This study tests a new system that uses wearable devices and a smartphone app to help people with non-small cell lung cancer recover after chest surgery. About 126 participants will either get standard care or use the wearable system, which tracks their activity and guides home e…

This study will follow 150 people aged 50-80 who recently had heart bypass surgery to see what factors help them recover best during cardiac rehab. Researchers will measure physical fitness, mood, thinking skills, sleep problems, and certain hormones. The goal is to learn how to …

This study looks at how common neck and low back pain is among physical therapy students at the University of the West Indies. It also tests whether an 8-week spine-specific exercise program can reduce pain and improve daily function better than general exercises. About 120 stude…

The purpose of this study is to explore whether intensive music therapy can help improve cognitive functions like memory, attention, and decision-making skills in stroke patients who are undergoing rehabilitation. This is a feasibility study, meaning it's also designed to see ho…
