Effects of robotic therapy on upper-extremity function in children with cerebral palsy: A systematic review.

Developmental neurorehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: To systematically examine the effects of robotic therapy on upper extremity (UE) function in children with cerebral palsy (CP).

Distinct Disconnection Patterns Explain Task-Specific Motor Impairment and Outcome After Stroke.

Stroke
BACKGROUND: Stroke is increasingly understood as a network disorder with symptoms often arising from disruption of white matter connectivity. Previous connectome-based lesion-symptom mapping studies revealed that poststroke motor deficits are not onl...

A pilot study for self-guided, active robotic training of proprioception of the upper limb in chronic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Proprioceptive impairments of the upper limb are common after stroke. These impairments are not typically addressed during assessment or rehabilitation. Currently, most robotic paradigms for training of the upper limb have focused solely ...

Reducing Upper-Limb Muscle Effort with Model-Based Gravity Compensation During Robot-Assisted Movement.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Clinical research has demonstrated that stroke patients benefit from active participation during robot-assisted training. However, the weight of the arm impedes the execution of tasks and movements due to the functional disability. The purpose of thi...

Robotic task specific training for upper limb neurorehabilitation: a mixed methods feasibility trial reporting achievable dose.

Disability and rehabilitation
PURPOSE: Robotic devices for upper-limb neurorehabilitation allow an increase in intensity of practice, often relying on video game-based training strategies with limited capacity to individualise training and integrate functional training. This stud...

[Trajectory planning and tracking control for upper limb traction rehabilitation training].

Sheng wu yi xue gong cheng xue za zhi = Journal of biomedical engineering = Shengwu yixue gongchengxue zazhi
To solve the safety problems caused by the restriction of interaction space and the singular configuration of rehabilitation robot in terminal traction upper limb rehabilitation training, a trajectory planning and tracking control scheme for rehabili...

The use of robotic upper limb therapy in routine clinical practice for stroke survivors: Insights from Australian therapists.

Australian occupational therapy journal
INTRODUCTION: There is a limited understanding of therapist acceptance and use of robot-assisted upper limb therapy (RT-ULT) in routine practice. The aim of this study was to explore the factors that influence Australian therapist acceptance and use ...

The Future of Artificial Intelligence in Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery.

Journal of surgical orthopaedic advances
The increasing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare is largely attributed to the fact that, with continual medical advances and digitization, clinical decision-making has become more and more reliant on data. As the volume and complexit...

An active machine learning framework for automatic boxing punch recognition and classification using upper limb kinematics.

PloS one
Boxing punch type classification and kinematic analysis are essential for coaches and athletes, providing critical insights into punch variety and effectiveness, which are vital for performance improvement. Existing methods for punch recognition and ...

Effect of Upper Robot-Assisted Training on Upper Limb Motor, Daily Life Activities, and Muscular Tone in Patients With Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Brain and behavior
BACKGROUND: Upper limb rehabilitation robot is a relatively new technology, but its effectiveness remains debatable due to the inconsistent results of clinical trials. This article intends to assess how upper limb rehabilitation robots help the funct...
