What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

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 trial tests whether combining robotic gloves with task-oriented mirror therapy can improve hand motor function in people recovering from a stroke. Thirty sub-acute stroke patients will receive either the combined therapy or mirror therapy alone, alongside standard rehabilitation. The goal is to see if the robotic assistance boosts recovery of movement, dexterity, and daily hand use.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Robotic gloves assisted task-oriented mirror therapy
What this could lead to
If effective, this combination therapy could offer a new way to improve hand movement and dexterity after a stroke.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 30 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke patients. The therapy requires significant time and effort, and benefits may vary.
