Evaluating Functional Outcomes of 3D-Printed Splints in Post-Stroke Upper Limb Recovery
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 21 Nov 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study aims to evaluate the upper limb motor recovery using a 3D-printed dynamic orthosis compared to a conventional one as part of a rehabilitation program in individuals with chronic stroke. The main question it seeks to answer: Which type of dynamic splint (3D-printed or traditional), combined with the task-oriented therapy program, leads to greater improvement in affected upper-limb function, patient satisfaction, and usability in stroke patients? Researchers will compare these two types of dynamic splints. Participants will: Receive 20 sessions of task-oriented therapy combined with either a 3D-printed dynamic splint or a traditional dynamic splint. Visit the clinic five times a week for a period of four weeks. Undergo assessments before and after the 4-week program.
