ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how effective a new type of rehabilitation is for patients who have had a stroke and now experience weakness on one side of their body, known as hemiplegia. The study is testing a combination of robotic exercises and activities that require doing two tasks at once, which may help improve both movement and cognitive skills.

To be eligible for this trial, participants should be between 45 and 65 years old and have had a stroke causing hemiplegia between 3 months to 1 year ago. They should also be able to voluntarily participate in rehabilitation and have a certain level of motor function loss. However, those with severe joint problems, other neurological conditions, or recent strokes won't be able to join. If you or someone you know is interested in participating, they can expect to engage in activities that aim to improve their movement and thinking skills in a supportive environment.
