ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, called "Robotic Rehabilitation for Stroke Survivors," is exploring how robotic therapy can help people who have had a stroke regain their ability to perform everyday tasks. The focus is on adults aged 65 to 74 who are dealing with long-term effects of a stroke that have impacted their ability to move their arms. If someone had a stroke and is still struggling with their arm movements but can follow simple instructions during training, they might be eligible to participate.

The study is currently not recruiting participants, but once it starts, those who join can expect to undergo robotic therapy designed to improve their arm function. This could potentially help them become more independent in daily activities. It's important to note that individuals who have not lost the use of their arms due to a stroke won't qualify for this study. Overall, this research aims to find out if robotic rehabilitation can make a real difference in the lives of stroke survivors.
