The Combined Effect of Robot-assisted Therapy and Activities of Daily Living Training on Upper Limb Recovery in Persons With Subacute Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of robot-assisted therapy (RAT) followed by activities of daily living (ADL) training in comparison with conventional rehabilitation therapy (CRT) and ADL training in individuals with subacute stroke.

Immersive participatory design of assistive robots to support older adults.

Ergonomics
Assistive robots have the potential to support independence, enhance safety, and lower healthcare costs for older adults, as well as alleviate the demands of their care partners. However, ensuring that these robots will effectively and reliably addre...

Identifying Functional Status Impairment in People Living With Dementia Through Natural Language Processing of Clinical Documents: Cross-Sectional Study.

Journal of medical Internet research
BACKGROUND: Assessment of activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental ADLs (iADLs) is key to determining the severity of dementia and care needs among older adults. However, such information is often only documented in free-text clinical notes...

Detection and Assessment of Point-to-Point Movements During Functional Activities Using Deep Learning and Kinematic Analyses of the Stroke-Affected Wrist.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Stoke is a leading cause of long-term disability, including upper-limb hemiparesis. Frequent, unobtrusive assessment of naturalistic motor performance could enable clinicians to better assess rehabilitation effectiveness and monitor patients' recover...

Reminiscent music therapy combined with robot-assisted rehabilitation for elderly stroke patients: a pilot study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Although some studies suggest that robot-assisted technology can significantly improve upper limb function in stroke patients compared to traditional rehabilitation training, it is still necessary to incorporate an auxiliary intervention ...

Comparison of assistance preferences of older adults with different functional dependence levels on domestic tasks performed by robots.

BMC geriatrics
BACKGROUND: Robots have the potential to assist older adults in their home-based daily living tasks. Previous studies indicated that older adults generally accept robot assistance. However, the preferences of older adults with different functional de...

Investigating Activity Recognition for Hemiparetic Stroke Patients Using Wearable Sensors: A Deep Learning Approach with Data Augmentation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Measuring the daily use of an affected limb after hospital discharge is crucial for hemiparetic stroke rehabilitation. Classifying movements using non-intrusive wearable sensors provides context for arm use and is essential for the development of a h...

Bilateral upper limb robot-assisted rehabilitation improves upper limb motor function in stroke patients: a study based on quantitative EEG.

European journal of medical research
BACKGROUND: Upper limb dysfunction after stroke seriously affects quality of life. Bilateral training has proven helpful in recovery of upper limb motor function in these patients. However, studies evaluating the effectiveness of bilateral upper limb...
