Robots can improve motor status after stroke with certain advantages, but there has been less emphasis to date on robotic developments for the hand. The goal of this study was to determine whether a hand-wrist robot would improve motor function, and to evaluate the specificity of therapy effects...

Therefore, the complexity of a motor task to be learned can be controlled for more precisely with robotics than in conventional treatment approaches. Although many devices have been designed to deliver arm therapy in individuals with stroke,
The aim of the study was to present a systematic review of studies that investigate the effects of robot-assisted therapy on motor and functional recovery in patients with stroke. Methods. A database of articles published up to October 2006 was compiled using the following Medline key words: ...

During the intervention, synchronizedelectrical activitybetween hand muscles and parts of the brain increased, a sign of enhanced communication. The healthy participants completed a motor task before and after the feedback intervention; the increased synchronization was linked to improved motor performance....
Significant improvements of upper limb motor performance was found after 2 weeks (p<;0.001); subsequently, no further significant improvements were observed. Our results confirm that robotic treatment is effective to reduce upper limb motor impairment in subacute stroke patients. Kinematic parameters can...
Proprioceptive function can become enhanced during motor learning. Yet, we have incomplete knowledge to what extent proprioceptive function is trainable and how a training that enhances proprioception may influence performance in untrained motor skills. To address this knowledge gap, healthy young adults ...
