Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the feasibility of using the Soft Forearm Robot system for wrist and forearm recovery of hemiplegic subjects suffered from stroke.

Participant will attend 20 training sessions and 3 assessment sessions. This system will leverage electromyography (EMG) signals for intention detection and regulating the movement and the contact for different tasks and objects, ensuring adaptive and precise control for rehabilitation tasks. A systematic clinical study involving sixty stroke patients divided into three groups will evaluate the effectiveness of our innovative design compared to conventional rehabilitation methods. By conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT), we aim to provide robust evidence on the benefits of our advanced robotic glove design in stroke rehabilitation. We hope our work will significantly advance the field of rehabilitation robotics by improving therapeutic practices, enhancing recovery outcomes, and elevating the quality of life for those facing hand mobility challenges. By integrating new soft robotic hand design with practical application, we aim to create an effective rehabilitation solution for everyone who needs it.
