Read our Stroke research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing whether robotic gloves used together with mirror therapy can help people who have recently had a stroke recover better hand function. Mirror therapy is a technique where you watch the reflection of your healthy hand in a mirror while your affected hand is hidden, which can trick your brain into helping the injured side heal. The robotic gloves assist and guide your affected hand through movements while you watch, combining two therapies that researchers believe might work better together than either one alone.
After a stroke, many people struggle to regain full use of their hands and fingers. While mirror therapy has shown promise in helping with recovery, combining it with modern robotic gloves could make therapy more engaging and effective by helping patients see real progress and stay motivated throughout their rehabilitation.

If you join this trial, you will receive either robotic glove therapy combined with mirror therapy, or traditional mirror therapy alone, along with your regular rehabilitation exercises. You will sit at a table during sessions where you wear a soft robotic glove on your affected hand and either watch it move in the mirror or perform everyday tasks like grasping a ball, moving a cup, or picking up objects. The study involves about 30 participants total, and you would attend sessions as part of your regular stroke recovery care.
