Brief Summary

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

In the proposed study, the investigators assumed that high dose of repetitive motor task training using an exoskeleton robot-assisted system may provide benefits in motor shaping and greater brain priming for hand paresis of the stroke patients. Nevertheless, the amount of therapeutic activity with clinicians' guidance is often short of number in therapy sessions.Therefore, using Internet of Things (IoT), connected rehabilitation products and the data they generate that are a new trend of rehabilitation strategy for providing remote home-programs support. The specific aim of this study is to to explore the feasibility of introducing the rental services of a Smart Home-based Exoskeleton Robot System through the IoT business model. And the second purpose is to investigate the effects of applying the exoskeleton robotic device for tenodesisgrip training as a home-based treatment for chronic stroke patients.The expected outcomes of this research are to clarify the feasibility of using IoT business model for launching smart rehabilitation device rental service and the effects of application a high dosage of hand movement training as home program on motor and hand function for patients with chronic stroke.
