NCT ID NCT03787693
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether virtual reality can help stroke survivors who have an uneven walk (one leg takes longer steps than the other). 42 adults who had a stroke at least 3 months ago took part. They learned a new walking task in virtual reality, and researchers measured how their step length and timing improved.
