Examining Differences in Patterns of Sensory and Motor Recovery After Stroke With Robotics.

Published Date: Nov 5, 2015

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Developing a better understanding of the trajectory and timing of stroke recovery is critical for developing patient-centered rehabilitation approaches. Here, we quantified proprioceptive and motor deficits using robotic technology during the first 6 months post stroke to characterize timing and patterns in recovery. We also make comparisons of robotic assessments to traditional clinical measures.
