NCT ID NCT07360613
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This pilot study tests whether a rehabilitation program using virtual reality, treadmills, and other technology can help people recover mobility after a stroke. 62 participants will receive the tech-based program, and their progress will be compared to similar patients who had usual care. The goal is to see if this approach is more effective and cost-efficient.

- Active substance
- Technology-enriched rehabilitation program using virtual reality, treadmills, and other equipment
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could provide evidence that a tech-based rehab program improves mobility recovery after stroke more than standard care.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small pilot study with only 62 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke patients. The intervention is complex and may not be feasible in other settings.
