Robot training for hand motor recovery in subacute stroke patients: A randomized controlled trial.

Journal of hand therapy : official journal of the American Society of Hand Therapists
BACKGROUND: Evidence of superiority of robot training for the hand over classical therapies in stroke patients remains controversial. During the subacute stage, hand training is likely to be the most useful.

Robot-supported upper limb training in a virtual learning environment : a pilot randomized controlled trial in persons with MS.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Despite the functional impact of upper limb dysfunction in multiple sclerosis (MS), effects of intensive exercise programs and specifically robot-supported training have been rarely investigated in persons with advanced MS.

A proposal for an Italian minimum data set assessment protocol for robot-assisted rehabilitation: a Delphi study.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
BACKGROUND: At present there is no agreement on a common evaluation protocol to assess improvement in stroke patients after robotic therapy.

Comparison of robotics, functional electrical stimulation, and motor learning methods for treatment of persistent upper extremity dysfunction after stroke: a randomized controlled trial.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To compare response to upper-limb treatment using robotics plus motor learning (ML) versus functional electrical stimulation (FES) plus ML versus ML alone, according to a measure of complex functional everyday tasks for chronic, severely i...

Identifying Neuroimaging Markers of Motor Disability in Acute Stroke by Machine Learning Techniques.

Cerebral cortex (New York, N.Y. : 1991)
Conventional mass-univariate analyses have been previously used to test for group differences in neural signals. However, machine learning algorithms represent a multivariate decoding approach that may help to identify neuroimaging patterns associate...

Work-rate-guided exercise testing in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury using a robotics-assisted tilt-table.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: Robotics-assisted tilt-table (RTT) technology allows neurological rehabilitation therapy to be started early thus alleviating some secondary complications of prolonged bed rest. This study assessed the feasibility of a novel work-rate-guided...

`Probabilistic ensemble learning for prediction of stroke thrombectomy outcomes from the NeuroVascular Quality Initiative-Quality Outcomes Database (NVQI-QOD) Acute Ischemic Stroke Registry.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
INTRODUCTION: Mechanical Thrombectomy (MT) is the standard of care in the interventional management of Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS). The NVQI-QOD registry records detailed patient characteristics, pre-operative imaging, procedure metrics, and post-ope...
