Journal ArticleDOI
Rehabilitation Robotics: Performance-Based Progressive Robot-Assisted Therapy
Hermano Igo Krebs,J.J. Palazzolo,Laura Dipietro,Mark Ferraro,Jennifer Krol,K. Rannekleiv,Bruce T. Volpe,Neville Hogan +7 more
TL;DR: A proposed method to achieve this goal is a novel performance-based impedance control algorithm, which is triggered via speed, time, or EMG, which has already noted one very strong benefit, a significant reduction in arm tone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rehabilitation robotics: pilot trial of a spatial extension for MIT-Manus
Hermano Igo Krebs,Hermano Igo Krebs,Mark Ferraro,Stephen P. Buerger,Miranda J Newbery,Miranda J Newbery,Antonio Makiyama,Michael Sandmann,Daniel V. Lynch,Bruce T. Volpe,Neville Hogan +10 more
TL;DR: Basic engineering aspects of a novel robotic module that extends the approach to anti-gravity movements out of the horizontal plane and a pilot study with 10 outpatients demonstrate that the protocol was safe and well tolerated with no patient presenting any adverse effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continuous passive motion improves shoulder joint integrity following stroke
TL;DR: Device-delivered continuous passive range of motion may offer an enhanced benefit for some adverse symptom reduction in the hemiplegic arm after stroke over traditional self-range of motion exercise.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessing the Motor Status Score: A Scale for the Evaluation of Upper Limb Motor Outcomes in Patients after Stroke:
Mark Ferraro,Jennifer Hogan Demaio,Jennifer Krol,Chris Trudell,Keren Rannekleiv,L. Edelstein,Paul J. Christos,Mindy L. Aisen,Jill England,Susan E. Fasoli,Hermano Igo Krebs,Neville Hogan,Bruce T. Volpe +12 more
TL;DR: The interrater reliability and criterion validity of the MSS performed in patients admitted to a rehabilitation hospital 21 ± 4 days after stroke is examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robotics and other devices in the treatment of patients recovering from stroke.
Bruce T. Volpe,Mark Ferraro,Daniel V. Lynch,Paul J. Christos,Jennifer Krol,Christine Trudell,Hermano Igo Krebs,Neville Hogan +7 more
TL;DR: New pilot data from novel devices to move the wrist demonstrate benefit and suggest that successive improvement of the function of the arm progressing to the distal muscles may eventually lead to significant disability reduction.
