Robot-Aided Neurorehabilitation: A Robot for Wrist Rehabilitation [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2007
In 1991, a novel robot, MIT-MANUS, was introduced to study the potential that robots might assist in and quantify the neuro-rehabilitation of motor function. MIT-MANUS proved an excellent tool for shoulder and elbow rehabilitation in stroke patients, showing in clinical trials a reduction of impairment in movements confined to the exercised joints ...
