Technology-assisted stroke rehabilitation in Mexico: a pilot randomized trial comparing traditional therapy to circuit training in a Robot/technology-assisted therapy gym.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Sep 15, 2016
BACKGROUND: Stroke rehabilitation in low- and middle-income countries, such as Mexico, is often hampered by lack of clinical resources and funding. To provide a cost-effective solution for comprehensive post-stroke rehabilitation that can alleviate t...
Performance-based robotic assistance during rhythmic arm exercises.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Sep 13, 2016
BACKGROUND: Rhythmic and discrete upper-limb movements are two fundamental motor primitives controlled by different neural pathways, at least partially. After stroke, both primitives can be impaired. Both conventional and robot-assisted therapies mai...
Using Data From the Microsoft Kinect 2 to Quantify Upper Limb Behavior: A Feasibility Study.
IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Sep 5, 2016
The objective of this study was to assess whether the novel application of a machine learning approach to data collected from the Microsoft Kinect 2 (MK2) could be used to classify differing levels of upper limb impairment. Twenty-four healthy subjec...
Performing Complex Tasks by Users With Upper-Extremity Disabilities Using a 6-DOF Robotic Arm: A Study.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Aug 26, 2016
In this paper, we report on the results of a study that was conducted to examine how users suffering from severe upper-extremity disabilities can control a 6 degrees-of-freedom (DOF) robotics arm to complete complex activities of daily living. The fo...
Role of Muscle Synergies in Real-Time Classification of Upper Limb Motions using Extreme Learning Machines.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Aug 15, 2016
BACKGROUND: Myoelectric signals offer significant insights in interpreting the motion intention and extent of effort involved in performing a movement, with application in prostheses, orthosis and exoskeletons. Feature extraction plays a vital role, ...
Efficacy of robot-assisted rehabilitation for the functional recovery of the upper limb in post-stroke patients: a randomized controlled study.
European journal of physical and rehabilitation medicine
Jul 13, 2016
BACKGROUND: A prompt and effective physical and rehabilitation medicine approach is essential to obtain recovery of an impaired limb to prevent tendon shortening, spasticity and pain. Robot-assisted virtual reality intervention has been shown to be m...
The potential power of robotics for upper extremity stroke rehabilitation.
International journal of stroke : official journal of the International Stroke Society
Jul 9, 2016
Two decades of research on robots and upper extremity rehabilitation has resulted in recommendations from systematic reviews and guidelines on their use in stroke. Robotics are often cited for their ability to encourage mass practice as a means to en...
Bilateral robots for upper-limb stroke rehabilitation: State of the art and future prospects.
Medical engineering & physics
Apr 24, 2016
Robot-assisted bilateral upper-limb training grows abundantly for stroke rehabilitation in recent years and an increasing number of devices and robots have been developed. This paper aims to provide a systematic overview and evaluation of existing bi...
Upper-Limb Robotic Exoskeletons for Neurorehabilitation: A Review on Control Strategies.
IEEE reviews in biomedical engineering
Apr 8, 2016
Since the late 1990s, there has been a burst of research on robotic devices for poststroke rehabilitation. Robot-mediated therapy produced improvements on recovery of motor capacity; however, so far, the use of robots has not shown qualitative benefi...
Efficacy of Upper Extremity Robotic Therapy in Subacute Poststroke Hemiplegia: An Exploratory Randomized Trial.
Stroke
Mar 22, 2016
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Our aim was to study the efficacy of robotic therapy as an adjuvant to standard therapy during poststroke rehabilitation.
