NCT05900999Completed
Addressing Arm Non-use by Encouraging Idle-time Activity During Early Recovery From Stroke
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Jan 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This project evaluates the feasibility of using custom wearable technology and associated procedures to increase activity of the more-involved upper extremity during the earliest stages of recovery from stroke by increasing the amount of therapeutic exercise during idle-time. The proposed research is relevant to public health because it takes steps to mitigate a significant problem in physical rehabilitation using low-cost technology to motivate and monitor idle-time exercise without adding significantly to clinician workloads. The project aligns with the NICHD / NCMRR Research Plan on Rehabilitation by exploiting a mobile health (mHealth) and sensor-based approach to promote health and wellness through participant-engaged, data-driven, individualized care.
