Robot-Assisted Training to Improve Proprioception of Wrist.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In recent years, robot-assisted training has been shown to significantly improve motor function and proprioception in people with functional disabilities, but the efficiency of proprioceptive acuity was unclear. To characterize the efficiency of join...

Reminiscent music therapy combined with robot-assisted rehabilitation for elderly stroke patients: a pilot study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Although some studies suggest that robot-assisted technology can significantly improve upper limb function in stroke patients compared to traditional rehabilitation training, it is still necessary to incorporate an auxiliary intervention ...

Generalizing Upper Limb Force Modeling With Transfer Learning: A Multimodal Approach Using EMG and IMU for New Users and Conditions.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In the field of EMG-based force modeling, the ability to generalize models across individuals could play a significant role in its adoption across a range of applications, including assistive devices, robotic and rehabilitation devices. However, curr...

Development of a master-slave 3D printed robotic surgical finger with haptic feedback.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robotic surgery started nearly 30 years ago. It has achieved telepresence and the performance of repetitive, precise, and accurate tasks. The "master-slave" robotic system allows control of manipulators by surgeon at distant site. Robotic surgical fi...

Rehabilitation Evaluation of Upper Limb Motor Function for Stroke Patients Based on Belief Rule Base.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
In the process of rehabilitation treatment for stroke patients, rehabilitation evaluation is a significant part in rehabilitation medicine. Researchers intellectualized the evaluation of rehabilitation evaluation methods and proposed quantitative eva...

Evaluation of Reliability of the Luna EMG Rehabilitation Robot to Assess Proprioception in the Upper Limbs in 102 Healthy Young Adults.

Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research
BACKGROUND Proprioception, the body's ability to perceive its own position and movement, is fundamental for motor control and coordination. Reliable assessment tools are essential, particularly for conditions affecting proprioceptive function. This s...

Effects of an assist-as-needed equipped Tenodesis-Induced-Grip Exoskeleton Robot (TIGER) on upper limb function in patients with chronic stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The original version of the Tenodesis-Induced-Grip Exoskeleton Robot (TIGER) significantly improved the motor and functional performance of the affected upper extremity of chronic stroke patients. The assist-as-needed (AAN) technique in r...

Dyad motor learning in a wrist-robotic environment: Learning together is better than learning alone.

Human movement science
OBJECTIVE: Dyad motor practice is characterized by two learners alternating between physical and observational practice, which can lead to better motor outcomes and reduce practice time compared to physical practice alone. Robot-assisted therapy has ...

Robotic Microsurgery in Extremity Reconstruction - Experience With a Novel Robotic System.

Surgical innovation
Robotic systems have successfully been introduced into other surgical fields in the past. First attempts with different setups are made in the field of microsurgery. The Symani® Surgical System, a flexible platform consisting of two robotic arms, fe...
