Summary

This study tests whether using a robotic exoskeleton for arm exercises helps people who had a stroke recover arm function better than standard therapy. About 70 adults with moderate to severe arm weakness within 90 days of their first stroke will participate. The goal is to see if robot-assisted rehab leads to greater improvement in arm movement and muscle control.
