Summary

The objectives of this study are to: determine the effects of exoskeleton vs. end effector training systems on upper extremity motor and physiological function, daily functions, quality of life and self-efficacy in patients with chronic stroke.

Detailed description

According to the theory and literature review, there are two hypotheses in this study. One is that exoskeleton training system has better benefits than end-effector training system in motion control techniques, joint mobility and muscle tone control. Second, end-effector training system has better benefits than exoskeleton training system in the functional activity level and daily life participation.

Conditions

Interventions

TypeNameDescription
DEVICEtraining systemsParticipants will receive 18 intervention sessions for about 6-9 consecutive weeks in a clinical setting (75 minutes per session, 2-3 sessions per week). For each intervention session, participants will first receive 10 minutes of warm-up followed by 50 minutes robotic-assisted training (robotic-assisted training includes 10 minutes passive training mode, 20 minutes active training mode, and 20 minutes robot-participant interactive training mode) and then 15 minutes of functional activity without robotic-assisted (content will be related to robotic-assisted training and will be based on the action function and preferences of the participants).
