Tailor-made rehabilitation approach using multiple types of hybrid assistive limb robots for acute stroke patients: A pilot study.

This article investigated the feasibility of a tailor-made neurorehabilitation approach using multiple types of hybrid assistive limb (HAL) robots for acute stroke patients. We investigated the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent rehabilitation using the HAL robots. The Brunnstrom stage, Barthel index (BI), and functional independence measure (FIM) were evaluated at baseline and when patie...

A Computational Index to Describe Slacking During Robot Therapy.

Movement facilitation has a fundamental role in the rehabilitation treatment of stroke survivors. However, its action mechanisms are still poorly understood. An open question is to identify the effect of the level of assistance on the recovery process. To address this topic, new insight on voluntary control and movement strategies during rehabilitation must be gained. Robot-assisted arm movements ...
