Brief Summary

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

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the effects of training performed with the LUNA-EMG system to enhance motor functions of the upper limb in stroke This is a randomized open-label trial. Patients will be randomized into the intervention group (LUNA-EMG) or in the control group (standard care).

The effect of the training will be measured with the EMG, the upper limb motor function and the quality of life.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

LUNA-EMG

The experimental group will receive 30 minutes of training with the LUNA-EMG for 12 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

LUNA-EMG

Intervention Type DEVICE

The LUNA-EMG (Samcom) system is a robot that allows the evaluation of muscular strength through the recording of muscle activity (electromyography - EMG) in order to provide precise objective data on the patient's muscle function. In addition to the diagnostic aspect (evaluation of muscle strength, range of motion and proprioception), the LUNA-EMG robot allows the adaptation of movements during rehabilitation sessions according to the individually generated strength.

Control

The control group will receive its rehabilitation care.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION
