Application of Deep Learning Algorithm to Monitor Upper Extremity Task Practice.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Upper extremity hemiplegia is a serious problem affecting the lives of many people post-stroke. Motor recovery requires high repetitions and quality of task-specific practice. Sufficient practice cannot be completed during therapy sessions, requiring...

Voluntary Assist-as-Needed Controller for an Ankle Power-Assist Rehabilitation Robot.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Although existing assist-as-needed (AAN) controllers have been designed to adapt the robotic assistance to patients' movement performance, they ignore patient's active participation. This study proposed a voluntary AAN (VAAN) controller co...

The effects of Robot-assisted gait training and virtual reality on balance and gait in stroke survivors: A randomized controlled trial.

Gait & posture
BACKGROUND: Stroke survivors often experience balance and gait problems, which can affect their quality of life and independence in daily living activities. Robot-assisted gait training, such as Lokomat with virtual reality, has been found to be effe...

Prototype development of bilateral arm mirror-like-robotic rehabilitation device for acute stroke patients.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
During the early six months after the onset of a stroke, patients usually remain disabled with limbs weakness and need intensive rehabilitation. An increased number of stroke patients is countered with a reduced number of physical therapists. The dev...

Efficacy of Robot-Assisted and Virtual Reality Interventions on Balance, Gait, and Daily Function in Patients With Stroke: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to evaluate the comparative effectiveness and ranking of robot-assisted training, virtual reality, and robot-assisted rehabilitation combined with virtual reality in improving balance, gait, and daily function in patients ...

Gait training with a wearable powered robot during stroke rehabilitation: a randomized parallel-group trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: We have developed a wearable rehabilitation robot, "curara®," and examined its immediate effect in patients with spinocerebellar degeneration and stroke, but its rehabilitative effect has not been clarified. The purpose of this study was ...

Performance-Based Robotic Training in Individuals with Subacute Stroke: Differences between Responders and Non-Responders.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The high variability of upper limb motor recovery with robotic training (RT) in subacute stroke underscores the need to explore differences in responses to RT. We explored differences in baseline characteristics and the RT dose between responders (ΔF...

Fuzzy Adaptive Passive Control Strategy Design for Upper-Limb End-Effector Rehabilitation Robot.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Robot-assisted rehabilitation therapy has been proven to effectively improve upper-limb motor function in stroke patients. However, most current rehabilitation robotic controllers will provide too much assistance force and focus only on the patient's...

New Artificial Intelligence-Integrated Electromyography-Driven Robot Hand for Upper Extremity Rehabilitation of Patients With Stroke: A Randomized, Controlled Trial.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
BACKGROUND: An artificial intelligence (AI)-integrated electromyography (EMG)-driven robot hand was devised for upper extremity (UE) rehabilitation. This robot detects patients' intentions to perform finger extension and flexion based on the EMG acti...

Patients' physiological reactions to competitive rehabilitation therapies assisted by robotic devices.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The aging of the population and the progressive increase in life expectancy in developed countries is leading to a high incidence of cerebrovascular diseases. Several studies have demonstrated that robot-assisted rehabilitation therapies ...
