Conditions

  • Chronic Stroke

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Robotic-assisted intervention

Participants received the 12-session robot-assisted intervention 3 sessions a week for 4 consecutive weeks. Each session consisted of 20-minute continuous passive motion, 20-minute active motion practice, and 30-minute task-oriented practice.

BEHAVIORAL

Conventional rehabilitation intervention

Participants received the 12-session conventional rehabilitation intervention 3 sessions a week for 4 consecutive weeks. The intervention consisted of warm up including range of motion exercise, and strengthening exercise followed by task-oriented training for activities of daily living.
