Summary

This study tests whether adding one hour of arm-hand exercises daily (5 days a week for 4 weeks) to usual care helps stroke patients regain arm function. 80 people who had a stroke within the last 5 months will be randomly assigned to either the extra arm-hand program or a lower-body exercise program. Researchers will measure arm movement, independence, and quality of life up to one year later, and also look at costs.

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
