Summary

In this study, patients with upper arm fracture will receive an additive robotic-assisted training using the Armeo®Spring robot for three weeks on the injured arm in addition to conventional physio- and occupational therapy. The supportive treatment and execution of specific exercises on the Armeo®Spring should lead to improved recovery of function and mobility of the upper arm compared to conservatively treated patients.

Conditions

  • Shoulder Injury

Interventions

OTHER

Intervention Armeo®Spring

The robotic-assisted training will be performed using the clinically evaluated Armeo®Spring medical device (Hocoma AG, Zurich, Switzerland). By means of a sensory orthosis, arm movements will be supported and transmitted to a computer system and visually shown on a screen.

OTHER

Control Group

The control group will receive conventional occupational- and physiotherapy over 3 weeks
