Summary

The aim of the project is to compare the effects of unilateral hybrid therapy \[unilateral robot-assisted therapy (RT)\] + unilateral arm training (UAT)\] and bilateral hybrid therapy \[bilateral RT + bilateral arm training (BAT)\] on motor function, daily function, mobility, life quality, and motor control strategy in stroke patients.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Unilateral Hybrid Intervention

For the unilateral RT training, participants will practice with their affected arms following a unilateral training protocol of BMT for 45 minutes (Yang, et al., 2012). For the UAT training, participants will receive training of the affected UL in functional tasks with behavioral shaping for 45 minutes (Lin, Wu, et al., 2009).

PROCEDURE

Bilateral Hybrid Intervention

For the bilateral RT training, patients will focus on training involving both arms using the BMT robot for 45 minutes. During the 45 minutes BAT training, participants will receive training in tasks focusing on bilateral symmetric or alternating movements of both ULs.

PROCEDURE

Robot-Assisted Training

The RT intervention will be matched in duration and intensity with the hybrid interventions. Participants in the RT group will practice on the BMT with bilateral protocols for 90 minutes. The tasks will be tailored according to the level
