简介
Background and Purpose:
Accelerometers have been used to capture real-world use of the paretic upper extremity in people with stroke. It may be possible to characterize different aspects of the recorded acceleration to gain insight about movement capabilities during task-specific behavior. These measures may be of value for guiding rehabilitation. We undertook a study to identify the acceleration characteristics that have a stable association with upper extremity function and sensitivity to within-participant fluctuations in function over multiple sessions of task-specific training.
Methods:
Twenty-seven adults 6 months or more poststroke with upper extremity paresis participated. Signals from wrist-worn accelerometers were sampled at 30 Hz during 7 sessions of task-specific training. Paretic upper extremity function was evaluated with the Action Research Arm Test. We used Spearman correlations to examine within …
