Summary

This is a randomized controlled trial which will compare conventional mirror therapy with mirror therapy using the Miraπ device which physically moves a patient's affected limb. This study will use two parallel groups: (1) receiving conventional mirror therapy as a part of the standard of care as conducted by the participant's clinical care team and (2) receiving mirror therapy with the Miraπ device as conducted by study personnel with the oversight of the participant's clinical care team.

Conditions

• Stroke
• Pain
• Impaired Motor Function

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Miraπ	This device has tiny sensors that measure the movement of the healthy fingers and tiny motors that move the affected fingers of the patient. The device is connected to a specially designed finger mechanism that moves the affected fingers of the patient. This opening mechanism is designed in a way that it prevents the fingers from being forced into any hurting position. If the patient moves the healthy fingers during training, also the fingers of the affected hand are moved by the device at the same time. This creates the effect of mirror therapy for the brain as the patient can see both hands moving.
BEHAVIORAL	Mirror Therapy	Current standard of care using MT.
