Pilot Trial of Robotic Hand Therapy After Stroke
Robotic-Assisted Hand Therapy for Neurorehabilitation in Adults With Hand Sensorimotor Impairments Following a Stroke: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 16 Jul 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This pilot study will test whether the GRIP program-a soft robotic glove with virtual-reality training-can improve hand and arm function in adults undergoing inpatient rehabilitation after a recent stroke. About 20 participants will be randomly assigned to either the GRIP program or action-observation therapy with education, in addition to usual care. The study will assess motor improvement, safety, and acceptability over approximately six weeks.
