Effects of Circuit Training Combining Different Types of Distal Robot-assisted and Task-oriented Therapy on Motor Control, Motor and Daily Functions, and Quality of Life After Stroke

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study proposes a novel stroke rehabilitation approach for upper extremity training by firstly combining different types of distal robot-assisted and task-oriented therapy in a circuit training program. The program could enhance UE functions, improving daily function, decrease caregiver burden and lower medical expenses associated with long-term care. Professionals can use these findings to promote the application of clinically empirical research and better understand the effects and mechanisms of circuit training.
