In the researchers' words
This study was designed to establish the clinical evidence for effect of Robot-Assisted upper arm training and Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on upper limb function of subacute stroke patients. * Purpose : to elucidate the effect of Robot-Assisted upper arm training and Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on upper limb function of stroke patients compared to conventional occupational therapy * Subjects : total 99 patients with stroke whose upper limb functions are impaired * Intervention : 4 weeks of therapy (5 days per week) * Studies : upper limb functional assessment (FMA, MFT, WMFT), computerized motion analysis * Evaluation plan : 1) pre-intervention, 2) post-2 weeks of intervention, 3) post-4 weeks of intervention, 4) 4 weeks after end of intervention
