Robotic glove trial aims to give ALS patients a helping hand

NCT ID NCT07298486

Summary

This small pilot study is testing whether using a special robotic glove can help people with ALS maintain hand strength and dexterity, and improve their quality of life. Five participants will use the glove daily for 8 weeks while researchers measure changes in their grip, fine motor skills, and well-being. The goal is to see if this assistive technology can help with daily tasks and slow the loss of hand function.
