Short and long-term effects of robot-assisted therapy on upper limb motor function and activity of daily living in patients post-stroke: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of robot-assisted therapy (RAT) on upper limb motor control and activity function in poststroke patients compared with that of non-robotic therapy.

Effects of robotic rehabilitation on recovery of hand functions in acute stroke: A preliminary randomized controlled study.

Acta neurologica Scandinavica
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of EMG-driven robotic rehabilitation on hand motor functions and daily living activities of patients with acute ischemic stroke.

Rehabilitation robotics after stroke: a bibliometric literature review.

Expert review of medical devices
INTRODUCTION: Stroke is the leading cause of long-term disability in developed countries. Due to population aging, the number of people requiring rehabilitation after stroke is going to rise in the coming decades. Robot-mediated neurorehabilitation h...

Adjustable Parameters and the Effectiveness of Adjunct Robot-Assisted Gait Training in Individuals with Chronic Stroke.

International journal of environmental research and public health
The aims of this study were (1) to compare the effect of robot-assisted gait orthosis (RAGO) plus conventional physiotherapy with the effect of conventional therapy alone on functional outcomes, including balance, walking ability, muscle strength, da...

SSVEP-Based Brain Computer Interface Controlled Soft Robotic Glove for Post-Stroke Hand Function Rehabilitation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Soft robotic glove with brain computer interfaces (BCI) control has been used for post-stroke hand function rehabilitation. Motor imagery (MI) based BCI with robotic aided devices has been demonstrated as an effective neural rehabilitation tool to im...

Effects of robot-assisted therapy on upper limb and cognitive function in patients with stroke: study protocol of a randomized controlled study.

Trials
BACKGROUND: Impairments in upper limb motor function and cognitive ability are major health problems experienced by stroke patients, necessitating the development of novel and effective treatment options in stroke care. The aim of this study is to ex...

A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial of Botulinum Toxin Treatment Combined with Robot-Assisted Therapy, Mirror Therapy, or Active Control Treatment in Patients with Spasticity Following Stroke.

Toxins
Effects of the combined task-oriented trainings with botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) injection on improving motor functions and reducing spasticity remains unclear. This study aims to investigate effects of 3 task-oriented trainings (robot-assisted therap...

Robot-assisted gait training: more randomized controlled trials are needed! Or maybe not?

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
I was encouraged by the recent article by Kuo et al. entitled "Prediction of robotic neurorehabilitation functional ambulatory outcome in patients with neurological disorders" to write an opinion piece on the possible further development of stationar...

Effects of control strategies on gait in robot-assisted post-stroke lower limb rehabilitation: a systematic review.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Stroke related motor function deficits affect patients' likelihood of returning to professional activities, limit their participation in society and functionality in daily living. Hence, robot-aided gait rehabilitation needs to be fruitfu...
