Stroke recovery breakthrough? biofeedback rehab put to the test
NCT ID NCT07333079
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a technique called biofeedback can help people who have had a stroke improve movement in their arms and hands. Researchers will measure changes in motor skills and grip strength. The goal is to see if this type of training leads to better recovery.
