Summary

The goal of this project is to test a device (Zondervan et al, 2013) that can provide active assistance for arm training for people in Vietnam with severe to moderate stroke, but that is also simple and does not rely on powered actuators. The hypothesis is that individuals with a severe chronic stroke, who exercise with a mechanically passive rehabilitation device, will have improved arm movement ability without experiencing an increase in arm pain.
