AR headset aims to bring stroke rehab home — but study never started
NCT ID NCT06963645
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study planned to test whether an augmented reality (AR) app called Reia could help stroke survivors with arm weakness do rehab exercises at home. Participants would have used an AR headset for daily 30-minute sessions over 8 weeks, with weekly video check-ins from a therapist. However, the study was withdrawn before enrolling any participants, so no data was collected.
