About this study

The purpose of this research is to investigate the interest of individuals with recent stroke in robotic therapy. Investigators will introduce a novel robotic platform to train ADLs of stroke patients. Investigators will examine the usability of this device as a home trainer for training rotational hand manipulation tasks such as opening a pickle jar, turning a key, missing a pot with a ladle, etc. The device will especially target stroke patients with ischemic stroke to enhance the performance of ADL. Also, investigators will examine the frequency and dosage of the current occupational therapy, followed by the satisfaction of the current therapy. Participant's participation will contribute to the development of a new therapy method using a robotic device for home-based training.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Current Therapy question - 1

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    How many hours are you receiving occupational therapy for each session?

  2. Current Therapy question - 2

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    How frequent are you receiving therapy (ex.: 2/week: two times per week)?

  3. Current Therapy question - 3

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    When did you start your therapy (how many days after stroke)?

  4. Current Therapy question - 4

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    What kind of therapy are you receiving now?

  5. Current Therapy question - 5

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    Do you think that the therapy you are receiving is helpful to restore your arm function and help you participate in activities during daily living (example: drinking, feeding, moving objects)?

  6. Current Therapy question - 6

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    Do you think that you are receiving enough occupational therapy to help you participate in activities during daily living (example: drinking, feeding, moving objects)?

  7. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 1

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    Do you think that this device can be helpful to improve your arm function from stroke?

  8. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 2

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    Do you think that you will use the device for home training when it is provided?

  9. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 3

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    Do you think that the device is helpful to help you participate in activities during daily living (example: drinking, feeding, moving objects)?

  10. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 4

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    If you have the device at home, how long would you like to exercise with the device?

  11. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 5

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    If you have the device at home, how frequent would like to use this device?

  12. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 6

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    Do you think that the training can be more effective by adding virtual reality?

  13. Interest in Robotic Rehabilitation question - 7

    Time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year

    If the device can apply therapeutic force, which type of force do you prefer for home-training?
