NCT ID NCT07254676
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether adding virtual reality (VR) exercises to standard physical therapy helps people who recently had a stroke recover arm and hand function better than therapy alone. Fifty-two adults with a first-time stroke and some remaining arm movement took part. Researchers measured improvements in arm control, strength, and daily use after treatment.
