First seen Jan 10, 2026 · Last updated May 27, 2026 · Updated 26 times

Summary

This study tests whether using a soft robotic hand together with electrical stimulation can help stroke survivors regain hand function better than either therapy alone. About 64 people who had a stroke 3-6 months ago will receive 40-minute sessions three times a week for 8 weeks. Researchers will measure grip strength, dexterity, and daily task performance to see if the combined approach speeds up recovery.
