Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Post-Stroke Hemiparesis
Stroke
Registration Number
NCT02726204
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate how the cable-driven arm exoskeleton (CAREX) can assist task performance during 3D arm movement tasks under various experimental conditions in healthy individuals and patients with stroke. This study is designed to test motor learning with the robotic rehabilitative device CAREX under three conditions in healthy subjects and subjects with post-stroke hemiparesis.
