VR Upper Limb Rehabilitation for Chronic Stroke Randomized Trial
Summary
NIH/NLM registered a randomized controlled trial (NCT07534124) evaluating non-immersive virtual reality rehabilitation (MindMotion GO) versus conventional occupational therapy for upper limb motor function in chronic stroke patients. The 8-week study with 3-month follow-up will assess motor function, daily living performance, quality of life, and neuroplastic changes via EEG. Enrollment and results will be posted to ClinicalTrials.gov.
What changed
NIH/NLM registered a new randomized controlled trial on ClinicalTrials.gov. The study will compare non-immersive virtual reality-based rehabilitation using the MindMotion GO system against conventional occupational therapy in 60+ chronic stroke patients. Both groups receive twice-weekly 40-minute sessions for eight weeks, with outcomes assessed at baseline and 3-month follow-up.
Compliance and regulatory affairs professionals tracking clinical research should note this trial registration for pipeline monitoring purposes. Healthcare providers and clinical investigators involved in stroke rehabilitation research may find this protocol relevant for competitive intelligence or potential collaboration. The study does not create immediate compliance obligations but adds to the evidence base on digital health interventions in neurorehabilitation.

Virtual Reality-Based Upper Limb Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke: A Randomized Trial
N/A NCT07534124 Kind: NA Apr 16, 2026
Abstract
This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of non-immersive virtual reality-based rehabilitation using the MindMotion™ GO system compared with conventional occupational therapy for improving upper limb motor function in individuals with chronic stroke. Stroke is a leading cause of long-term disability in adults worldwide, and barriers such as limited access to rehabilitation services, low motivation, and reduced adherence may hinder recovery in the chronic phase.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either an experimental group receiving non-immersive virtual reality training or a control group receiving conventional occupational therapy according to standard clinical practice. Both groups will complete two rehabilitation sessions per week for eight weeks, with each session lasting approximately 40 minutes.
The study will assess upper limb motor function, performance in activities of daily living, and quality of life. In addition, electroencephalography (EEG) will be used before and after the intervention to explore potential neuroplastic changes associated with rehabilitation.
Outcome assessments will be conducted at baseline and at follow-up approximately three months after the initial evaluation. The results of this study may help determine whether non-immersive virtual reality is an effective and accessible tool to enhance rehabilitation outcomes in individuals with chronic stroke.
