Stroke instigates a dynamic process of repair and remodelling of remaining neural circuits,
and this process is shaped by behavioural experiences. The onset of motor disability …

Objective To investigate the efficacy of virtual reality (VR)-and gaming-based interventions
for improving upper extremity function poststroke, and to examine demographic and …

Purpose: It is estimated that 50% to 75% of individuals who experience a stroke have
persistent impairment of the affected upper limb (UL). There is a need to identify the best …

Wearable devices are used in rehabilitation to provide biofeedback about biomechanical or
physiological body parameters to improve outcomes in people with neurological diseases …

While most upper limb training interventions in neurological rehabilitation are based on
established principles of motor learning and neural plasticity, recovery potential may be …

Background It is the purpose of this article to identify and review criteria that rehabilitation
technology should meet in order to offer arm-hand training to stroke patients, based on …

Background. A major challenge in stroke rehabilitation is restoration of arm motor function.
Therapy-induced improvements in arm function may occur via restoration of premorbid …

Objective. The aim of this study was to establish the efficacy of a therapeutic intervention
based on functional electrical stimulation (FES) therapy to improve reaching and grasping …

Introduction: Robot-assisted therapy is an emerging approach that performs highly
repetitive, intensive, task oriented and quantifiable neuro-rehabilitation. In the last decades …

Background: Consequences of stroke frequently comprise reduced movement ability of the
upper extremity (UE) and subsequent long-term disability. Clinical scales are used to …
