Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This pilot trial compares a home-based cognitive-motor telerehabilitation program using exergames to standard outpatient rehabilitation for people recovering from traumatic brain injury. Participants will complete 20 sessions over 7 weeks, and researchers will measure changes in functional independence, thinking skills, mobility, and quality of life. The goal is to see whether a home-based approach can match or outperform traditional clinic-based rehab.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
home-based cognitive-motor telerehabilitation (exergame) program
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a convenient, home-based alternative to standard outpatient rehab for people recovering from traumatic brain injury.
What could go wrong
This is a small pilot study with only 30 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The home-based program may be less effective than in-person therapy for some individuals.
