What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Background: While conventional mirror therapy is a Level A recommended rehabilitation for poststroke upper extremity recovery, digital mirror therapy-enabled by augmented reality and computer vision-offers a promising alternative with potential for greater engagement and enriched sensory feedback. However, systematic comparisons of their clinical and physiological benefits, alongside an understanding of patient experiences with digital therapy, are lacking. Objectives: This randomized controlled trial will compare the efficacy of digital versus conventional mirror therapy for upper extremity rehabilitation in people after chronic stroke. The evaluation will focus on three areas: 1) clinical outcomes in motor function and community integration; 2) musculoskeletal physiological mechanisms, assessed through upper extremity muscle co-activation patterns; and 3) patient-reported barriers and
