Multi-Centre Clinical Trial of Virtual Reality Upper Limb Rehabilitation

Abstract (German)

YouGrabber is the first and only rehabilitation product that supports bimanual upper-limb rehabilitation combining reaching and grasping with virtual reality. Large scale clinical studies are critical to establish the system¿s efficacy and facilitate its commercial deployment. We will conduct a multi-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) to determine the efficacy of YouGrabber for the treatment of chronic stroke patients. This study is essential for both a successful commercial launch of YouGrabber and as a basis for future insurance coverage of the system.
