Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 18 or older with a history of stroke, with some preserved wrist and finger movement, and who are recommended for upper-extremity training by their healthcare providers.
✕Probably not a fit
Individuals lacking sufficient motor activation in the affected limb or unable to commit to follow-up may not experience benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This trial examines how feasible and effective the NeuroTechR3 Computer Rehabilitation System is for improving upper extremity function in adults who have had a stroke. The study focuses on a rehabilitation approach that uses computer-assisted therapy to guide targeted movements. Participants must have the ability to extend the wrist and activate multiple fingers and thumbs, and must be able to provide informed consent. Safety and adherence to follow-up are considered in selecting and retaining participants. The study is conducted at Brooks Rehabilitation Hospital in Jacksonville, FL, led by Brooks Rehabilitation with NeuroTechR3 as a collaborator.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience improved upper limb function and better quality of life after stroke.
How similar studies have gone: Prior studies using computer-assisted rehabilitation have shown promise in improving upper-extremity function after stroke, though results vary by device and protocol.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥18 years at the time of enrollment * Diagnosed with stroke * No other peripheral or central neurological condition limiting target upper extremity function (previous stroke is ok) * Indicated for upper extremity training procedures by participant's treating physician, occupational therapist, or physical therapist * Capable of providing informed consent * Participant demonstrates active extension of wrist and activation of at least two other digits plus thumb activation Exclusion Criteria: * In the opinion of the investigators, the study is not safe or appropriate for the participant, and/or the participant is unlikely to return for the follow-up visits per the protocol to return the device at 4 weeks post discharge * Visual impairment that would severely limit ability to see a computer screen for participation in sessions, including severe spatial neglect making the person unable to interact with an entire computer screen * Inability to follow a 3-step motor command * Severe upper extremity tone that will limit participation in study * No internet access at home * Severe receptive aphasia * Severe arthritis that limits hand and arm movements * Not independent in functional activities/mobility prior to stroke
