Stroke recovery from home: tele-rehab may match clinic therapy for arm function
NCT ID NCT07720609
First seen Jul 22, 2026 · Last updated Jul 23, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a structured arm therapy program delivered through video calls can improve upper limb function in people who had a stroke at least six months ago, compared with the same therapy given in a clinic. Sixty-eight participants will receive modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy three times a week for six weeks, either remotely or in person. The study measures changes in arm movement, spasticity, and motivation to see if the home-based approach is a viable alternative.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Modified Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy delivered via tele-rehabilitation or in a clinic
- What this could lead to
- If tele-rehabilitation proves as effective as clinic-based therapy, it could expand access to proven stroke rehabilitation for people who cannot easily travel to a clinic.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively small trial, and tele-rehabilitation may not work as well for everyone, especially those with limited internet access or comfort with technology.
