Summary
This study tests whether a robotic exoskeleton combined with video games can improve arm movement in people who recently had a stroke. The device restricts certain movements to help patients relearn natural motion without using bad habits. The trial will enroll 44 participants in the early stages of recovery and track changes in arm function over six months.
