Summary

A recent multicenter study of the Fondazione Don Gnocchi (FDG) Robotic Rehabilitation Group (NCT02879279) showed the efficacy of robotic rehabilitation in upper limb motor recovery after stroke using a set of robots and sensor-based devices. In clinical practice, beside sensory-motor deficits, stroke patients often present concomitant cognitive impairments (as attention and memory disorders). The robotic and technological systems used in the above-mentioned study allow training on some cognitive functions such as visual memory, visual-spatial functions and working memory, as well as motor training of the upper limb. The aim of the study is to assess whether cognitive functions, such as visual memory, visual-spatial skills and working memory (evaluated with specific tests) improve after robotic therapy of the upper limb in subacute stroke patients.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Robotic assisted intervention

Robotic treatment of the upper limb (30 sessions, 5 times a week) using a set of 4 robotic devices: Motore (Humanware); Amadeo, Diego, Pablo (Tyromotion). The training will include motor-cognitive exercises specifically selected to train spatial attention, vision and working memory, praxis, executive function, and speed of processing.
