Summary

This study tests a home-based robot that stretches and moves the ankle, combined with mild electrical stimulation to activate leg muscles, for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago. The goal is to improve walking, range of motion, and muscle strength. 60 participants will use the robot alone or with stimulation, and researchers will measure changes in movement and walking ability.
