Robot hand coach lets patients rehab at home without a therapist

NCT ID NCT07182734

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a hand rehabilitation device called ReHandyBot, paired with a smartphone app called RehabCoach, can help people recover after a stroke, traumatic brain injury, or orthopedic problem. Thirty participants will first use the device under supervision at a clinic, then take it home for daily unsupervised therapy. The goal is to see if patients can use the tools safely and stick to their therapy schedule on their own.
