Electrically Assisted Movement Therapy in Chronic Stroke Patients With Severe Upper Limb Paresis: A Pilot, Single-Blind, Randomized Crossover Study

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Silvio Ionta, Andrea Biasiucci, Andrea Maesani, Stephanie Clarke

Objective To evaluate the effects of electrically assisted movement therapy (EAMT) in which patients use functional electrical stimulation, modulated by a custom device controlled through the patient's unaffected hand, to produce or assist task-specific up ...

Increasing upper limb training intensity in chronic stroke using embodied virtual reality: a pilot study

Olaf Blanke, José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Andrea Serino, Gangadhar Garipelli, Thomas Schmidlin, Odile Hélène Chevalley

Background: Technology-mediated neurorehabilitation is suggested to enhance training intensity and therefore functional gains. Here, we used a novel virtual reality (VR) system for task-specific upper extremity training after stroke. The system offers inte ...

Model-based variables for the kinematic assessment of upper-extremity impairments in post-stroke patients

Silvestro Micera, Elvira Pirondini

Background: Common scales for clinical evaluation of post-stroke upper-limb motor recovery are often complemented with kinematic parameters extracted from movement trajectories. However, there is no a general consensus on which parameters to use. Moreover, ...

Long-Term Training with a Brain-Machine Interface-Based Gait Protocol Induces Partial Neurological Recovery in Paraplegic Patients

Hannes Bleuler, Solaiman Shokur, Simon Gallo, Miguel Nicolelis

Brain-machine interfaces (BMIs) provide a new assistive strategy aimed at restoring mobility in severely paralyzed patients. Yet, no study in animals or in human subjects has indicated that long-term BMI training could induce any type of clinical recovery. ...

Wearable barometric pressure sensor to improve postural transition recognition of mobility-impaired stroke patients

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Fabien Massé

Sit-to-stand and Stand-to-sit transfers (STS) provide relevant information regarding the functional limitation of mobility- impaired patients. The characterization of STS pattern using a single trunk fixed inertial sensor has been proposed as an objective ...

Robot-assisted gait training improves motor performances and modifies Motor Unit firing in post-stroke patients

Silvestro Micera

Background. Robotics and related technologies are realizing their promise to improve the delivery of rehabilitation therapy but the mechanism by which they enhance recovery is still unknown. The electromechanical-driven gait orthosis Lokomat has demonstrat ...

Alteration and recovery of arm usage in daily activities following rotator cuff surgery

Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Brigitte Jolles-Haeberli, Cyntia Duc

Background: The objective measurement of dominant/nondominant arm use proportion in daily life may provide relevant information on healthy and pathologic armbehavior. This prospective case-control study explored the potential of such measurements as indica ...

Modulation of the inter-hemispheric asymmetry of motor-related brain activity using brain-computer interfaces

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Michael Eric Anthony Pereira, Aleksander Sobolewski

Non-invasive brain stimulation has shown promis- ing results in neurorehabilitation for motor-impaired stroke patients, by rebalancing the relative involvement of each hemisphere in movement generation. Similarly, brain-computer interfaces have been used t ...

Quantitative Kinematic Characterization of Reaching Impairments in Mice After a Stroke

Silvestro Micera, Stefano Lai

Background and Objective. Kinematic analysis of reaching movements is increasingly used to evaluate upper extremity function after cerebrovascular insults in humans and has also been applied to rodent models. Such analyses can require time-consuming frame- ...
