Rhythmic robotic training enhances motor skills of both rhythmic and discrete upper-limb movements after stroke: a longitudinal pilot study.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
Discrete and rhythmic movements are two fundamental motor primitives being, at least partially, controlled by separate neural circuitries. After a stroke, both primitives may be impaired in the upper limb. Currently, intensive functional movement the...

Can a Robot Bring Your Life Back? A Systematic Review for Robotics in Rehabilitation.

Advances in experimental medicine and biology
Stroke is a leading cause of disability in the world and the use of robots in rehabilitation has become increasingly common. The Fourth Industrial Revolutions has created a novel and wide range of options for the involvement of computer-guided and ar...

A Hybrid Approach for Sub-Acute Ischemic Stroke Lesion Segmentation Using Random Decision Forest and Gravitational Search Algorithm.

Current medical imaging reviews
BACKGROUND: The sub-acute ischemic stroke is the most basic illnesses reason for death on the planet. We evaluate the impact of segmentation technique during the time of breaking down the capacities of the cerebrum.

Feasibility of an Electromyography-Triggered Hand Robot for People After Chronic Stroke.

The American journal of occupational therapy : official publication of the American Occupational Therapy Association
IMPORTANCE: Effective treatment of the affected hand after stroke is crucial for improved functional independence and recovery.

Comparative Assessment of Two Robot-Assisted Therapies for the Upper Extremity in People With Chronic Stroke.

The American journal of occupational therapy : official publication of the American Occupational Therapy Association
OBJECTIVE: We investigated the effects on motor and daily function of robot-assisted therapies in people with chronic stroke using the Bi-Manu-Track (BMT) and InMotion 3.0 (IMT) compared with control treatment (CT).

Comparative Effects of Different Assistance Force During Robot-Assisted Gait Training on Locomotor Functions in Patients With Subacute Stroke: An Assessor-Blind, Randomized Controlled Trial.

American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to compare the effects of progressive reducing assistance force versus full assistance force controlled robot-assisted gait training combined with conventional physiotherapy on locomotor functions in patients with ...

The economic cost of robotic rehabilitation for adult stroke patients: a systematic review protocol.

JBI database of systematic reviews and implementation reports
The objective of this review is to identify the best available evidence on the economic cost of robotic rehabilitation for adult stroke patients to improve their motor movement abilities. More specifically, the objective is to identify the evidence o...

Effect of reducing assistance during robot-assisted gait training on step length asymmetry in patients with hemiplegic stroke: A randomized controlled pilot trial.

Medicine
BACKGROUND: An assist-as-needed robot-assisted gait training protocol was recently developed. It allows active movement during training, but its exact criteria remain unknown. Asymmetric step length is a common abnormal gait pattern in hemiplegic str...
