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

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 study compares a virtual reality (VR) rehabilitation program that combines movement and cognitive training in realistic everyday environments with conventional occupational therapy for people who have had a stroke. The goal is to see if the VR program leads to greater improvements in balance, motor function, and thinking skills, and whether any benefits last over time. The trial includes 28 participants who are at least six months post-stroke and able to stand safely.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
virtual reality-based task-oriented exercises
What this could lead to
If effective, this VR approach could offer a more engaging and effective way to rehabilitate both movement and thinking skills after a stroke.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 28 participants, so results may not apply to all stroke survivors. The VR program may not prove better than standard therapy.
