Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

A pilot study to assess the effectiveness of CR2-Haptic and determine the feasibility of including robotic therapy into the daily rehabilitation program.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The objective of this study is to clinically assess the effectiveness of CR2-Haptic and determine the feasibility of including robotic therapy into the daily rehabilitation program, and investigate the acceptance from patients and therapists. Total of 7 patients will be recruited in this study, all the patients will receive 1.5 hours of standard therapy together with 0.5 hour of robot therapy every day. The robot therapy will be a 30 mins long session for 3 to 5 days per week over a period of six weeks. The study will include forearm pronation-supination and wrist flexion-extension training.
