Combined transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and robot-assisted arm training in patients with stroke: a systematic review.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Upper limb motor deficits in patients with severe stroke often remain unresolved over time. Combining transcranial Direct Current Stimulation with robotic therapy is an innovative neurorehabilitation approach that holds promise to improve...

Kinematic dexterity analysis of human-robot interaction of an upper limb rehabilitation robot.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: The definition of rehabilitation training trajectory is of great significance during rehabilitation training, and the dexterity of human-robot interaction motion provides a basis for selecting the trajectory of interaction motion.

Effects of Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation on Hand Function of People With Stroke: A Randomized, Crossover-Controlled, Assessor-Blinded Study.

The American journal of occupational therapy : official publication of the American Occupational Therapy Association
IMPORTANCE: The effects of robot-assisted task-oriented training with tangible objects among patients with stroke remain unknown.

Human-robot coupling dynamic modeling and analysis for upper limb rehabilitation robots.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Upper limb rehabilitation robots have become an important piece of equipment in stroke rehabilitation. Human-robot coupling (HRC) dynamics play a key role in the control of rehabilitation robots to improve human-robot interaction.

Sequentially applied myoelectrically controlled FES in a task-oriented approach and robotic therapy for the recovery of upper limb in post-stroke patients: A randomized controlled pilot study.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Functional recovery of the plegic upper limb in post-stroke patients may be enhanced by sequentially applying a myoelectrically controlled FES (MeCFES), which allows the patient to voluntarily control the muscle contraction during a funct...

Effects of short-term upper limb robot-assisted therapy on the rehabilitation of sub-acute stroke patients.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted therapy (RT) has become a promising stroke rehabilitation intervention.

Comparison of active-assisted and active-unassisted robot-mediated upper limb therapy in subacute stroke.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Upper-limb robot-mediated therapy is usually carried out in active-assisted mode because it enables performance of many movements. However, assistance may reduce the patient's own efforts which could limit motor recovery.

Movement strategy and EMG activities of the upper extremity at assisted reaching exercise with a 7 DOF collaborative robot.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Recovering of upper extremity functions is important for stroke patients to perform various tasks in daily life. For better rehabilitation outcomes and accurate measurement, robot assisted exercises have been developed. However, there are limited num...

Subject-specific, Impairment-based Robotic Training of Functional Upper Limb Movements.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Significant hand and upper-limb impairment is common post-stroke. Robotic training can administer a high-dose of repetitive movement training to stroke survivors, but its efficacy can be further improved by targeting specific impairments of individua...
