In the researchers' words
This is a single-blind randomized comparative efficacy study involving 54-72 participants with chronic stroke. Participants will be randomized into proximal priority robotic group or distal priority robotic group and receive 18 intervention sessions (90 min/d, 3 d/wk for 6 weeks). The Fugl-Meyer Assessment Upper Extremity subscale, Medical Research Council Scale, Revised Nottingham Sensory Assessment, and Wolf Motor Function Test will be administered at baseline, after treatment, and at the 3-month follow-up. Two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance and the Chi-Square Automatic Interaction Detector Method will be used to examine the comparative efficacy and predictors of outcome, respectively, after intervention.
