Stroke is one of the leading causes for disability worldwide. Motor function deficits due to
stroke affect the patients' mobility, their limitation in daily life activities, their participation in …

Robot-mediated post-stroke therapy for the upper-extremity dates back to the 1990s. Since
then, a number of robotic devices have become commercially available. There is clear …

This paper presents a novel electromyography (EMG)-driven hand exoskeleton for bilateral
rehabilitation of grasping in stroke. The developed hand exoskeleton was designed with two …

This article aims to give an overall review of research status in hand rehabilitation robotic
technology, evaluating a number of devices. The main scope is to explore the current state …

Stroke patients often have flexor hypertonia and finger extensor weakness, which makes it
difficult to open their affected hand for functional grasp. Because of this impairment, hand …

The successful motor rehabilitation of stroke patients requires early intensive and task-
specific therapy. A recent Cochrane Review, although based on a limited number of …

Background A novel electromechanical robotic-exoskeleton was designed in-house for the
rehabilitation of wrist joint and Metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint. Objective The objective …

Objective To investigate the efficacy and effects of transcranial direct current stimulation
(tDCS) on motor imagery brain-computer interface (MI-BCI) with robotic feedback for stroke …

In this paper, we discuss robot-mediated neurorehabilitation as a significant emerging field
in clinical medicine. Stroke rehabilitation is advancing toward more integrated processes …

The extent of cortical neuroplastic changes has been shown to be a key neurophysiological
feature that correlates with the level of functional recovery. Therefore, rehabilitation efforts …
