RObotic-Assisted Rehabilitation for balance and gait in Stroke patients (ROAR-S): study protocol for a preliminary randomized controlled trialOlder adultsElderlyRehabilitationFallsTechnologyStroke, the incidence of which increases with age, has a negative impact on motor and cognitive performance, quality ...
Combining upper extremity robotic rehabilitation with conventional rehabilitation in stroke patients led to similar improvements in respiratory muscle strength, functional capacity, and mobility while also improving some respiratory parameters and reducing the perception of dyspnea. Trial Registration Number NCT05...
To determine if stroke rehabilitation after six months was possible, the researchers studied five right-hand dominant patients who had strokes at least six months prior that affected the left side of the brain and, consequently, use of the right hand. For the study, the patients squeezed a spe...
Once the robotic hand therapy devices are built, they will be sent to UC-Irvine for testing with patients. The patient’s ability will be measured before and after training with the robotic exoskeleton. Wolbrecht said robotic devices have been used for the last 20 years for rehabilitation, but...

Subjects and Methods: Ten hemiparetic stroke survivors completed 12 90-minute sessions using an upper-limb robotic exoskeleton unilaterally and bilaterally. During the sessions subjects played seven different games designed for rehabilitation. At the conclusion of their sessions subjects completed an 83-...
This original rehabilitation treatment could contribute to increase the hand motor recovery in acute stroke patients. The simplicity of the treatment, the lack of side effects, and the first positive results in acute stroke patients support the recommendations to extend the clinical trial of this ...
CONCLUSIONS:This study supports previous findings, demonstrating that RAGT using the EksoNR lower extremity exoskeleton improves gait and functional status in stroke patients, while being well tolerated. The results highlight the potential of this approach for improved rehabilitation outcomes. ...

Initial rehabilitation therapy for many stroke victims may focus on regaining the ability to walk. But when hands also are affected, therapy focused only on the legs can leave hand muscles contracted, a condition that can be difficult to overcome.
