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

Restorative neurology and neuroscience Jan 1, 2021
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.
