Single Joint Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL-SJ) robotic exoskeleton therapy in improving functional outcomes among workers with wrist fractures: Study protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

PloS one
INTRODUCTION: Robotic technologies have been developed for motor rehabilitation and such robots have shown favourable results when compared with equivalent doses of usual clinical therapy. Recently, robotic interventions have been suggested to be app...

Predicting response to non-invasive brain stimulation in post-stroke upper extremity motor impairment: the importance of neurophysiological and clinical biomarkers.

Neurological sciences : official journal of the Italian Neurological Society and of the Italian Society of Clinical Neurophysiology
BACKGROUND: Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) is a promising approach to enhance upper extremity motor impairment (UEMI) recovery in post-stroke individuals. However, variability in treatment response poses a significant challenge. Identifying ne...

Interim results of exoskeletal wearable robot for gait recovery in subacute stroke patients.

Scientific reports
Exoskeletons have been proposed for potential clinical use to improve ambulatory function in patients with stroke. The aim of an interim analysis of an international, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial was to investigate the short-term effect ...

Randomized Trial on Electroacupuncture for Recovery of Postoperative Gastrointestinal Function Based on Long-Term Monitoring Device.

Annals of surgical oncology
BACKGROUND: This research aimed to explore the efficacy and safety of electroacupuncture in promoting the recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function and to discuss the potential mechanism on the basis of heart rate variability (HRV).

Effectiveness of an intelligent weight-bearing rehabilitation robot in enhancing recovery following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Frontiers in public health
AIM: Orthopedic surgery patients frequently delay early rehabilitation due to postoperative discomfort. This is especially true for younger patients with anterior cruciate ligament injuries who are eager to return to sports after discharge. Despite t...

The effect of lower limb rehabilitation robot on lower limb -motor function in stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Systematic reviews
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...

Effects of Robot-Assisted Therapy for Upper Limb Rehabilitation After Stroke: An Umbrella Review of Systematic Reviews.

Stroke
BACKGROUND: Robotic rehabilitation, which provides a high-intensity, high-frequency therapy to improve neuroplasticity, is gaining traction. However, its effectiveness for upper extremity stroke rehabilitation remains uncertain. This study comprehens...

Artificial intelligence in stroke rehabilitation: From acute care to long-term recovery.

Neuroscience
Stroke is a leading cause of disability worldwide, driving the need for advanced rehabilitation strategies. The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into stroke rehabilitation presents significant advancements across the continuum of care, fro...

Rehabilitation training robot using mirror therapy for the upper and lower limb after stroke: a prospective cohort study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: This prospective cohort study was designed to investigate and compare the effectiveness of rehabilitation training robots versus conventional rehabilitation training on stroke survivors by monitoring alterations in brain network of stroke...
