Summary

The purpose of this study is to develop an upper extremity robotic training system for use by people with stroke to practice arm and hand movement in the clinic.

Conditions

  • Cerebrovascular Accident

Interventions

DEVICE

Functional/ Multi-joints activities

Subjects participated in 4 weeks of robotic training with the device: BONES (Biomimetic Orthosis Neurorehabilitation for Elbow and Shoulder), 3 days per week, 1 hour per day with the robotic exercise program focusing on functional tasks such as cleaning the windows, driving a steering wheel, grocery shopping, etc.

DEVICE

Individual Joint Training

Subjects participated in 4 weeks of training with the robotic device BONES, 3 days per week, 1 hour per day with a robot-assisted exercise program. The robotic exoskeleton assists in arm and hand movements focusing on one joint at a time.
