In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the clinical effects of a robotic rehabilitation treatment through a bilateral exoskeleton (Bilateral Robot-Assisted Therapy-BRAT) during standard rehabilitation, on motor recovery, compared to conventional arm re-education in people suffering from stroke in the subacute phase. The main question it aims to answer is what the effectiveness of Bilateral Robot-Assisted Therapy (BRAT) is in rehabilitating the upper limb in individuals with subacute stroke compared to conventional rehabilitation treatment in terms of motor function improvement as measured by the Fugl-Meyer Assessment - Upper Limb (FMA-UL), motor domain. Researchers will compare two groups (Experimental Group - EG and Control Group - CG) to see if the BRAT is more effective than conventional rehabilitation treatment in terms of motor recovery. Participants will be randomly assigned t
