Summary

Comparison of two types of robot (Armeo power vs Armeo spring) for upper extremity rehabilitation on upper extremity function

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to compare two types of robot. The robot used in this experiment was Armeo power and Armeo spring. Armeo power could provide assistive force via motor, on the other hand, Armeo spring could not provide any assist. Thus the results from this study might suggest usefulness of motorized robot.

Conditions

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	Armeo power	Intervention with Armeo power rehabilitation robot for upper extremity (made by Hocoma), which provide assistive force. The intervention was done 4 weeks, 5 times/week, 30 minutes/day.
DEVICE	Armeo spring	Intervention with Armeo spring rehabilitation robot for upper extremity (made by Hocoma), which is operated only by participants, without any assistive force from robot. The intervention was done 4 weeks, 5 times/week, 30 minutes/day.
