In the researchers' words
This study proposes a novel stroke rehabilitation approach for upper extremity training by firstly combining different types of distal robot-assisted and task-oriented therapy in a circuit training program. The program could enhance UE functions, improving daily function, decrease caregiver burden and lower medical expenses associated with long-term care. Professionals can use these findings to promote the application of clinically empirical research and better understand the effects and mechanisms of circuit training.
