A Qualitative and Usability Evaluation of Advanced Technologies for Home Upper Limb Neurorehabilitation Post-stroke

NCT06406569 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Summary

Due to limited resources such as the low therapist to patient ratio or high costs associated to rehabilitation therapy, providing higher therapy dose to patients after discharge is highly challenging. This often results in non-use of the impaired limb as a result of the decreased therapy dose, causing partial loss of the functional improvements previously gained during early rehabilitation.

In this study, the investigators plan to pilot the HomeRehab Gym concept via the deployment of three rehabilitation devices at patients' homes: MyoPanda, H-Man and ReHandyBot.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

H-Man Robot

The HMAN is certified as a CE class 2A upper limb rehabilitation robot suitable for hospital, clinic and home-based use in 2020 by Health Sciences Authority, Singapore. It has since been employed in post-stroke neurorehabilitation therapy and assessment of sensorimotor functions in stroke patients.

DEVICE

ReHandyBot

ReHandyBot is the portable version of ReHapticKnob a robot developed at ETH Zurich that provides neurocognitive therapy, focusing on hand opening and closing movements as well as prono-supination of the forearm.

DEVICE

MyoPanda

MyoPanda is a passive wrist/hand device which patients use to train the hand and wrist function by controlling a virtual avatar with EMG activity measures.
