Abstract

Robotic therapy has shown promise for improving arm function after stroke. However, it is difficult to improve the behavior of the affected arm in daily life. This study provided modified forms of original Constraint-induced movement therapy (modified CIMT) which is effective for the affected arm and self-training using ReoGo-J (Robotic therapy) during six weeks for subacute patients with moderate to severe upper limb paralysis after stroke. We examined whether this approach could improve the movement of the affected arm by comparing with previous studies. As a result, this approach improved not only arm function but also affected arm behavior in daily life compared with previous studies. These results suggest that combining modified CIMT with robotic therapy helps patients regain upper limb function in their daily lives.
