X Abstract

Studies of neuroplasticity suggest that repetitious movements optimise changes at brain level, and that this response is optimised if the task is challenging and engaging. The evidence to date on physiotherapy interventions suggests that an increased intensity of therapy provides better outcomes and that exercise-based interventions demonstrate positive treatment effects. Robot-mediated therapy (RMT) is an innovative way of providing these components. This study investigated the effect of RMT on upper extremity function post-stroke.
