Establishment of a Feasible Smart Upper Limb Rehabilitation Model in Post-pandemic Era: Examples for Patients With Stroke and Spinal Cord Injuries
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effectiveness of the developed application and exoskeleton robot devices for home-based training in stroke patients and patients with spinal cord injuries. The application that uses an Internet of Things (IoT) platform to enable remote monitoring of rehabilitation progress by clinical practitioners. Simultaneously, it seeks to assist the execution of patient movements through devices.
In patients with stroke, half of the participants will be assigned to experimental group, receiving a smart upper limb motor rehabilitation system for home program. The other half will be assigned to control group, receiving a traditional home program. In patients with spinal cord injuries. Participants will follow the same allocation method for home-based intervention.
Researchers will conduct an analysis before and after intervention, examining progress in motor function, activities of daily living, and quality of life.
Inclusion: 20-79 years old; The score of Montreal Cognitive Assessment is more than or equal to 26; The unilateral hemorrhagic or ischemic participants; The performance of upper limb movement is affected by damage to brain cells; 20-65 years old; The score of Mini-Mental Status Examination is more than or equal to 25; Diagnosed as incomplete spinal cord injury at the C5 or C6 level.
Exclusion: Another muscular or neurological diseases that effects motor performance; Another muscular or neurological diseases that effects motor performance; Underwent sugery on the shoulder, elbow or wrist; Severe pain in upper limb; Underwent sugery on the shoulder, elbow or wrist; Severe pain in upper limb.
