Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare standard occupational therapy to a combination of conventional (standard) and robotic therapy. The Reo Go device will provide robotic therapy that gives therapists a tool that could make stroke treatment faster and better by helping patients practice more accurate arm movements with help from the device.

Conditions

  • Acute Stroke
  • Paresis

Interventions

DEVICE

Reo Go robotic arm trainer

Robotic training with the Reo Go is included with conventional treatment during daily OT sessions

PROCEDURE
