Conditions
Summary
Rehabilitation after stroke often employs Robot and Allied Digital Technologies (RADTs), yet evidence on their effectiveness remains inconclusive due to study heterogeneity and limited sample sizes. This multicentre randomized controlled pragmatic trial aims at comprehensively and accurately assessing the effectiveness of rehabilitation mediated by RADTs after a stroke, compared to traditional rehabilitation, also considering economic sustainability.
