AI Therapist Realizing Expert Verbal Cues for Effective Robot-Assisted Gait Training.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Repetitive and specific verbal cues by a therapist are essential in aiding a patient's motivation and improving the motor learning process. The verbal cues comprise various expressions, sentences, volumes, and timings, depending on the therapist's pr...

Systematic review of guidelines to identify recommendations for upper limb robotic rehabilitation after stroke.

European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
INTRODUCTION: Upper limb motor impairment is one of the most frequent stroke consequences. Robot therapy may represent a valid option for upper limb stroke rehabilitation, but there are still gaps between research evidence and their use in clinical p...

Brain-computer interface robotics for hand rehabilitation after stroke: a systematic review.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Hand rehabilitation is core to helping stroke survivors regain activities of daily living. Recent studies have suggested that the use of electroencephalography-based brain-computer interfaces (BCI) can promote this process. Here, we repor...

Robot enhanced stroke therapy optimizes rehabilitation (RESTORE): a pilot study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robotic rehabilitation after stroke provides the potential to increase and carefully control dosage of therapy. Only a small number of studies, however, have examined robotic therapy in the first few weeks post-stroke. In this study we de...

Behavioral and neurophysiological effects of an intensified robot-assisted therapy in subacute stroke: a case control study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Physical training is able to induce changes at neurophysiological and behavioral level associated with performance changes for the trained movements. The current study explores the effects of an additional intense robot-assisted upper ext...

Robotic Assessment of Upper Limb Function in a Nonhuman Primate Model of Chronic Stroke.

Translational stroke research
Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide and survivors are frequently left with long-term disabilities that diminish their autonomy and result in the need for chronic care. There is an urgent need for the development of therapies t...

Effect of combined home-based, overground robotic-assisted gait training and usual physiotherapy on clinical functional outcomes in people with chronic stroke: A randomized controlled trial.

Clinical rehabilitation
OBJECTIVES: To assess the effect of a home-based over-ground robotic-assisted gait training program using the AlterG Bionic Leg orthosis on clinical functional outcomes in people with chronic stroke.

Identifiable Patterns of Trait, State, and Experience in Chronic Stroke Recovery.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
BACKGROUND: Considerable evidence indicates that the functional connectome of the healthy human brain is highly stable, analogous to a fingerprint.

An Exoneuromusculoskeleton for Self-Help Upper Limb Rehabilitation After Stroke.

Soft robotics
This article presents a novel electromyography (EMG)-driven exoneuromusculoskeleton that integrates the neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES), soft pneumatic muscle, and exoskeleton techniques, for self-help upper limb training after stroke. Th...

Effects of robot viscous forces on arm movements in chronic stroke survivors: a randomized crossover study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Our previous work showed that speed is linked to the ability to recover in chronic stroke survivors. Participants moving faster on the first day of a 3-week study had greater improvements on the Wolf Motor Function Test.
