Description détaillée
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to determine whether the Glove for Rehabilitation and Interactive Practice (GRIP) program can help improve hand and arm movement in adults who have difficulty using their hand after a recent stroke. The GRIP program uses a soft robotic glove and a virtual reality training platform. It is added to the usual rehabilitation care that participants already receive.
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
- Does the GRIP program help improve hand and arm movement?
- Is the GRIP program safe?
- Do participants find the GRIP program acceptable, comfortable, and engaging? (qualitatively).
Researchers will compare the Glove for Rehabilitation and Interactive Practice (GRIP) program with action-observation therapy and education. Action-observation therapy means watching videos of hand movements and then practicing the same movements. Both groups will also receive their usual rehabilitation care. This study will include about 20 adults who are in an inpatient rehabilitation program after a stroke and who have difficulty using their hand.

Expérimental: Glove for Rehabilitation and Interactive Practice (GRIP) program
10 participants will be randomly assigned to this group.
|
Participants will receive the GRIP program in addition to usual rehabilitation care.
The program uses a soft robotic glove worn on the affected hand together with a non-immersive virtual-reality system that displays hand exercises and a virtual hand that moves with the participant's real movements.
The glove can provide assistance or resistance to support grasping practice and strengthening.
Training focuses on repeated grasping tasks and strategies to increase use of the affected hand in daily activities.
The program includes ten supervised 30-minute sessions over two weeks.

Comparateur actif: Action-Observation Therapy (AOT) and Education
10 participants will be randomly assigned to this group.
|
Participants will receive usual rehabilitation care plus action-observation therapy (AOT).
They will complete ten self-directed 30-minute AOT sessions over two weeks.
Each session consists of repeated cycles of watching short videos of hand movements and then attempting to reproduce those movements with the affected hand.
Videos will match the grasp types practiced in the intervention arm.
Participants will also attend three individual education sessions on post-stroke arm and hand recovery, including strategies to increase use of the affected hand in daily activities.
