No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate two aspects of robotic therapy after stroke. One goal is to determine if early robotic rehabilitation of the upper limb (beginning 5-9 days post-stroke) is more effective than later robotic rehabilitation (beginning 21-25 days post-stroke). The other goal is to determine if higher intensity robotic rehabilitation (2 hours/day) is more effective than lower intensity robotic rehabilitation (1 hour/day).

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Robotic exoskeleton

The Kinesiological Instrument for Normal and Altered Reaching Movements (KINARM) robotic exoskeleton used to provide therapy and assessment. The device has framework that supports the arms and the supports are adjustable to ensure a comfortable fit. Motors attached to the framework record shoulder and elbow movements and also move the arms.

BEHAVIORAL

Usual Care

This group will receive standard care with no additional therapy.
