First seen Jan 05, 2026 · Last updated May 02, 2026 · Updated 24 times

Summary

This study looks at whether using a robotic exoskeleton for arm exercises helps people who had a stroke regain arm function better than traditional rehab. It includes 70 adults who had a first stroke within the last 90 days and have moderate to severe arm weakness. Participants will be randomly assigned to robot-assisted or standard therapy, and their arm movement will be measured before and after treatment.
