Unimanual Versus Bimanual Motor Skill Learning in Acute and Chronic Stroke

Comparison of Unimanual Versus Bimanual Motor Skill Learning (Proximal and Distal) After Stroke by Means of Robotics (REA²Plan® and Dextrain®) and Multimodal Brain Imaging (VLSM, DTI, NODDI, DIAMOND)

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 17 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

To test the capacity of healthy individuals, chronic and acute stroke patients to learn and retain a complex unimanual or bimanual motor skill, trained on the neurorehabiliation robot REAplan® et the Dextrain® device. The goals are (1) to compare head-to-head bimanual versus unimanual motor learning (in the proximal and distal upper limb, UL) during the acute - early subactue stage of stroke with robotics and (2) to identify the neural substrates associated with (and deficits in) unimanual versus bimanual motor control (proximal and distal) after stroke by means of multimodal brain imaging.

  • Visits and tests: ask the trial team, the registry does not list them

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Prior treatment

  • drug/alcohol abuse
  • medical history with a previous stroke/relevant neurological deficit
  • drug/alcohol abuse

Other illness

  • multiple stroke/dementia/psychiatric condition
    • HEALTHY INDIVIDUALS
  • psychiatric condition/dementia

Other

  • \[for acute paitents\] "classical" contre-indication to MRI (non-MR-compatible pacemaker, pregnancy, non-MR-compatible implanted devices, claustrophobia, etc ...)
  • difficulty in understanding or executing commands
  • severe aphasia/cognitive deficits interfering with study
  • inability to complete the tasks (i.e. full paralysis of the arm)
  • "classical" contre-indication to MRI (non-MR-compatible pacemaker, pregnancy, non-MR-compatible implanted devices, claustrophobia, etc ...)
  • having already used the robotic devices

Who the study is looking for

  • acute stroke (between day 2 and day 21 post-stroke) or chronic stroke (\>6 mois)
  • aged 40-90 years
  • with a single demonstrated stroke (ischemic or hemorrhagic) lesion on brain imaging
  • 40-90 years

Criteria the registry did not label

  • STROKE PATIENTS

Age in the registry: 40 years to 90 years · Sex: All · Accepts healthy volunteers
