A working model of stroke recovery from rehabilitation robotics practitioners

Authors: Hermano Igo Krebs, Bruce Volpe, Neville Hogan

Published in: Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation | Issue 1/2009

Abstract

We reviewed some of our initial insights about the process of upper-limb behavioral recovery following stroke. Evidence to date indicates that intensity, task specificity, active engagement, and focusing training on motor coordination are key factors enabling efficacious recovery. On modeling, experience with over 400 stroke patients has suggested a working model of recovery similar to implicit motor learning. Ultimately, we plan to apply these insights in the development of customized training paradigms to enhance recovery.
