Robotic Rehabilitation of the Upper Limb in Subacute Stroke
Sponsored by IRCCS San Raffaele Roma
About this study
This multicenter international randomized controlled trial (RCT) evaluates the effectiveness of the Gloreha Sinfonia® robotic exoskeleton for upper limb rehabilitation in individuals with subacute post-stroke paresis. The study aims to determine whether robotic-assisted therapy improves voluntary motor control and coordination more effectively than conventional rehabilitation, as measured by the Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) for the upper limb (motor component). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: * Experimental Group (EG): Robotic-assisted upper limb rehabilitation combined with conventional therapy. * Control Group (CG): Conventional therapy alone including upper limb rehabilitation. Clinical assessments will be conducted at baseline (T1), post-treatment (T2), and at a 3-month follow-up (T3) using remotely administered scales. Secondary objectives include evaluating improvements in muscle strength, range of motion, eye-hand coordination, manual dexterity, and functional independence. The study will also assess prognostic factors influencing response to robotic therapy, patient satisfaction, and potential adverse events.
