Brief summary (registry, in English)

Considering the paucity of studies on robotic hand therapy, larger-scale and long-term follow-up studies are needed. The aim in this study is to demonstrate the effectiveness of robot-assisted hand therapy in patients with chronic stroke and to compare this effectiveness in patients with different Brunnstrom stages.
