Robotic Exoskeleton for Wrist and Fingers Joint in Post-Stroke Neuro-Rehabilitation for Low-Resource Settings.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Robots have the potential to help provide exercise therapy in a repeatable and reproducible manner for stroke survivors. To facilitate rehabilitation of the wrist and fingers joint, an electromechanical exoskeleton was developed that simultaneously m...

Robot-Assisted Arm Training in Chronic Stroke: Addition of Transition-to-Task Practice.

Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
. Robot-assisted therapy provides high-intensity arm rehabilitation that can significantly reduce stroke-related upper extremity (UE) deficits. Motor improvement has been shown at the joints trained, but generalization to real-world function has not ...

Automated robot-assisted assessment for wrist active ranges of motion.

Medical engineering & physics
The measurement of wrist active range of motion (ROM) is essential for determining the progress of hand functional recovery, which can provide insight into quantitative improvements and enable effective monitoring during hand rehabilitation. Compared...

Using Recurrent Neural Networks to Compare Movement Patterns in ADHD and Normally Developing Children Based on Acceleration Signals from the Wrist and Ankle.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects, among other things, the movement patterns of children suffering it. Inattention, hyperactivity and impulsive behaviors, major symptoms characterizing ...

Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) Combined With Wrist Robot-Assisted Rehabilitation on Motor Recovery in Subacute Stroke Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Both transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and wrist robot-assisted training have demonstrated to be promising approaches for stroke rehabilitation. However, the effects of the combination of the two treatments in subacute stroke patients ar...

Effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with robot-assisted training on wrist muscle activation post-stroke.

Clinical neurophysiology : official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology
OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of active assisted wrist extension training, using a robotic exoskeleton (RW), with simultaneous 5 Hz (rTMS + RW) or Sham rTMS (Sham rTMS + RW) over the ipsilesional extensor carpi radialis motor cortical representat...

Stress detection in daily life scenarios using smart phones and wearable sensors: A survey.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Stress has become a significant cause for many diseases in the modern society. Recently, smartphones, smartwatches and smart wrist-bands have become an integral part of our lives and have reached a widespread usage. This raised the question of whethe...

A Multi-Layer Gaussian Process for Motor Symptom Estimation in People With Parkinson's Disease.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
The assessment of Parkinson's disease (PD) poses a significant challenge, as it is influenced by various factors that lead to a complex and fluctuating symptom manifestation. Thus, a frequent and objective PD assessment is highly valuable for effecti...

Interactive Compliance Control of a Wrist Rehabilitation Device (WRD) with Enhanced Training Safety.

Journal of healthcare engineering
Interaction control plays an important role in rehabilitation devices to ensure training safety and efficacy. Compliance adaptation of interaction is vital for enabling robot movements to better suit the patient's requirements as human joint characte...

Wrist accelerometer shape feature derivation methods for assessing activities of daily living.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: There has been an increasing interest in understanding the usefulness of wrist-based accelerometer data for physical activity (PA) assessment due to the ease of use and higher user compliance than other body placements. PA assessment stud...
