Exoskeleton robots for upper-limb rehabilitation
2016 13th International Multi-Conference on Systems, Signals & Devices (SSD), 2016In this paper, the design of a new upper limb rehabilitation system is presented. The developed system is an exoskeleton with two degrees of freedom that can be used for diagnosis, physical therapy, and outcome evaluation. The system is dedicated to the patients with paraplegia of their upper extremities due to stroke or any disorders of the central or

Cable-driven Wearable Upper Limb Rehabilitation Robot
2018 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics (ROBIO), 2018The usage of rehabilitation training robot is an effective way for postoperative stroke rehabilitation. The existing robots for upper limbs rehabilitation training are mostly designed with rigid links, which are large in size, high in cost and not easy to be aligned with human joints.

Planar Robotic Systems for Upper-Limb Post-Stroke Rehabilitation
Volume 2: Biomedical and Biotechnology Engineering, 2008Rehabilitation is the only way to promote recovery of lost function in post-stroke hemiplegic subjects, leading to independence and early reintegration into social and domestic life. In particular, upper limb rehabilitation is fundamental to regain ability in Activities of Daily Living (ADLs).

Robot-assisted upper limb rehabilitation in chronic stroke patients
2013 35th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2013The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of upper limb robot-assisted treatment in chronic post-stroke patients using clinical outcome measures and kinematic parameters. Thirty-two chronic stroke patients participated in the study. Fugl-Meyer (FM) Assessment scale and Motricity Index (MI) were used for clinical assessment, and a set of ...
