The program uses the HERO glove, a soft, untethered, and wearable robotic device that allows five-finger extension and grip assistance.

(adherence)\n* Do people living with stroke continue to participate in the therapy program until follow-up? (retention)\n* How acceptable and helpful is the hand robot to be use at the outpatient rehabilitation clinic and home via telerehabilitation for people living with stroke?\n* How reliable and safe is the hand robot when used in clinical and home settings?\n* What are the costs of delivering the hand robot program compared to providing the same amount of standard therapy without the hand robot? Researchers will also compare rehabilitation using the hand robot program to a dose-matched therapy program that does not use the robot.\n\n  * Intervention group: Participants will use the hand robot for 12 weeks, with follow-up intervention and assessments at 6 months.\n  * Control (comparator) group: Participants will receive the same amount of therapy over 12 weeks, but without the hand robot, followed by 6-month follow-up.\n\nFor both groups, researchers will record information about each participant's clinical recovery, their experience with the therapy process and the cost of care.",[124],"Stroke (6 Months or More After Onset)",[126,127,128,129,130,131,132],"Stroke","Hand function","Robotic exoskeleton","Virtual care","Rehabilitation","Neurological rehabilitation","Hand therapy","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-07-06",{"date":136,"type":137},"2026-07-13","ACTUAL",{"date":139,"type":118},"2026-09-01",{"date":141,"type":118},"2029-12-23",{"name":91,"class":6},2]
