In the researchers' words

The goal of this clinical trial is to understand whether a program of using a hand robot at home, supported by telerehabilitation, is feasible for people living with stroke. The study aims to answer the following questions: * What is the extent that people living with stroke complete the prescribed therapy program? (adherence) * Do people living with stroke continue to participate in the therapy program until follow-up? (retention) * 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? * How reliable and safe is the hand robot when used in clinical and home settings? * 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. * Intervention group: Participants will use the hand robot for 12 weeks, with follow-up intervention and assessments at 6 months. * 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. For both groups, researchers will record information about each participant's clinical recovery, their experience with the therapy process and the…
