Haptic-Assisted Virtual Reality Upper-Limb Rehabilitation After Intracerebral Haemorrhage

Feasibility and Preliminary Efficacy of Haptic-Assisted Virtual Reality Rehabilitation for Upper-Limb Motor Impairment After Spontaneous Intracerebral Haemorrhage: An Exploratory Substudy of the CrossReg-4-Health Cohort

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 20 Oct 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

After spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), many survivors have persistent weakness of the arm and hand. Virtual reality (VR) training with haptic (force-feedback) devices may support upper-limb recovery, but evidence comes mainly from ischaemic or mixed stroke populations. This exploratory substudy of the CrossReg-4-Health cohort will include 100 adults with upper-limb motor impairment after ICH. All participants will receive conventional physiotherapy and occupational therapy (ten 60-minute sessions over two weeks). Half will additionally receive 15 minutes of supervised haptic-assisted VR training per session using the Bimeo PRO system. Upper-limb motor function, disability, adherence, tolerability and adverse events will be assessed before and after the two-week programme to estimate feasibility and preliminary effect sizes for future trials.
