Robotic Exoskeletons for Upper Extremity Rehabilitation
In 2003, 700,000 persons in the United States suffered a cerebral vascular accident (CVA), or stroke, with the total number of survivors estimated at 5.5 million. The total cost for rehabilitation and lost revenue in 2006 was 57.9 billion (Thom, Haase et al. 2006). Stroke commonly causes significant residual physical, cognitive, and psychological impairment (Gresham 1990). As the geriatric popu...
متن کاملEfficacy of Upper Extremity Robotic Therapy in Subacute Poststroke Hemiplegia
Although stroke affects nearly 15 million people worldwide annually, with 5 million experiencing some degree of permanent paralysis, appropriate rehabilitation programs can improve motor function and quality of life. For example, repetitive voluntary movement of the paralyzed limb can improve function and remodel neural circuits. Robotic technologies may be effective for stroke rehabilitation b...
متن کاملRobotic assistance for upper extremity training after stroke.
There has been a rapid increase in the past decade in the number of robotic devices that are being developed to assist in movement rehabilitation of the upper extremity following stroke. Many of these devices have produced positive clinical results. Yet, it is still not well understood how these devices enhance movement recovery, and whether they have inherent therapeutic value that can be attr...
متن کاملDesign of the robotic exoskeleton for upper-extremity rehabilitation
This paper touches upon the issue of designing of an upper-limb exoskeleton used for rehabilitation. Mainly there are presented the results concerning the mechanical design. The exoskeleton, also known as orthosis, has 12 degrees of freedom (DOF). Among 12 DOF there can be distinguished 7 DOF which are actively controlled during rehabilitation, 3 passive DOF which are responsible for wrist move...
متن کاملEfficacy of Upper Extremity Robotic Therapy in Subacute Poststroke Hemiplegia: An Exploratory Randomized Trial.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our aim was to study the efficacy of robotic therapy as an adjuvant to standard therapy during poststroke rehabilitation. METHODS Prospective, open, blinded end point, randomized, multicenter exploratory clinical trial in Japan of 60 individuals with mild to moderate hemiplegia 4 to 8 weeks post stroke randomized to receive standard therapy plus 40 minutes of either rob...
