Comparing the Effect of a Graded Repetitive Arm Supplementary Home-based Exercise Programme With COgnitive-somatoSensory-MOtor Training to Improve Arm and Hand Function After Stroke (iCOSMO)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Home Graded Repetitive Arm Supplementary Program (GRASP) and integrated Somatosensory-MOtor training using a COgnitive approach(iCOSMO) for Stroke and 2 related conditions. Currently recruiting, targeting 40 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The iCOSMO study investigates the feasibility and beneficial effects of an intervention combining sensation, motor and cognition to improve arm and hand function after chronic stroke.

Timeline
Interventions
The home-based exercise programme will be based on the Home Graded Repetitive Arm Supplementary Program focusing on stretching, arm strengthening, hand strengthening, coordination and hand skills. The Home Graded Repetitive Arm Supplementary Program will be delivered 2 hours/session, 3 times/week, for 6 weeks.
The first training approach of iCOSMO will focus on integrated somatosensory-motor variables during reaching and object manipulation (60 minutes). The second training approach will focus on proprioceptive, motor and cognitive tasks using the Kinarm robotic exoskeleton (60 minutes). iCOSMO will be delivered 3 times per week (2 hours per session) for 6 weeks (Total: 36 hours of treatment).
