ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at the RehAtt™ mixed-reality system, a special technology designed to help people who have had a stroke improve their ability to use their arms, walk, and maintain balance. The researchers want to understand how patients feel about using this system and if they find it easy and helpful during their rehabilitation process.

To participate in this study, you need to have had your first stroke, either from a blockage or bleeding in the brain, and have weakness on one side of your body. You should also be able to think clearly enough to follow instructions. Unfortunately, those with severe cognitive issues, speech difficulties, certain other health conditions, or those who can’t sit up on their own won't be able to join. If you decide to participate, you’ll get the chance to try out this new technology and share your thoughts on how it works for you. The trial is currently looking for volunteers aged 65 to 74, and both men and women are welcome to join.
