Summary

The purpose of this study is to validate the usability of ArmAssist medical device, a robotic system for the rehabilitation of upper limbs in stroke patients (based on serious games). This study evaluate the usability of the system in a home environment, taking into account the ease-to-use, consistency and others; and will pretend demonstrate the feasibility of including or no, robotic therapy in home like complement of daily rehabilitation program. Finally this study investigate the acceptance from patients and therapists.

Conditions

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DEVICE	ArmAssist	The usability study protocol include 3 ArmAssist systems (2 designed for the left hand and one for the right hand) that could not be used in parallel because the aim of the study was to bring the systems to the home environment during part of the evaluation. The usability study is carried out in two phases: 1. First phase: 5 weeks. 2. Second phase: 3 weeks. Each phase included a week of training at the Hospital or IMIBIC facilities with a physiotherapist, and then 2 weeks at the patient's home, being the first one with the physiotherapist supervision and the second one by their own with the possibility of physiotherapist remote support.
