BACKGROUND: Over 80% of patients with stroke experience finger grasping dysfunction, affecting independence in activities of daily living and quality of life. In routine training, task-oriented training is usually used for functional hand training, w...
INTRODUCTION: About 17-80% stroke survivors experience the deficit of upper limb function, which strongly influences their independence and quality of life. Robot-assisted training and functional electrical stimulation are commonly used interventions...

The control strategy of rehabilitation robots should not only adapt to patients with different levels of motor function but also encourage patients to participate voluntarily in rehabilitation training. However, existing control strategies usually co...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the effects of virtual reality (VR)-based robot therapy combined with task-oriented therapy on cerebral cortex activation and upper limb function in patients with stroke.
BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional gait analysis, supported by advanced sensor systems, is a crucial component in the rehabilitation assessment of post-stroke hemiplegic patients. However, the sensor data generated from such analyses are often complex and...
Soft exoskeletons (exosuits) are expected to provide a comfortable wearing experience and compliant assistance compared with traditional rigid exoskeleton robots. In this paper, an exosuit with twisted string actuators (TSAs) is developed to provide ...
BACKGROUND: The assessment and enhancement of lower limb motor function in hemiplegic patients is of paramount importance. The emergence of lower limb rehabilitation robots offers a promising avenue for improving motor function in these patients, add...
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological condition that affects mobility and motor control, presenting significant challenges for accurate diagnosis, particularly in cases of hemiplegia and diplegia. This study proposes a method of classification utiliz...
