Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Dynamic-orthosis training group
Participants will undergo traditional occupational therapy (2-3 times per week, one hour per session, for a total of six weeks), supplemented with an additional home-based dynamic orthotic therapy program (five days per week, one hour per session, for six weeks). The style of the dynamic orthosis will be selected by the researchers based on the participants' movement performance and rehabilitation goals, and it will be adjusted or replaced as their abilities progress.
Dynamic-orthosis
Engaging in motion training at home with the use of dynamic orthoses.
Traditional stroke occupational therapy training
Traditional post-stroke movement training arranged by an occupational therapist in a medical setting.
Regular training group
Participants will receive traditional occupational therapy (2-3 sessions per week, one hour per session, for a total of six weeks). The training program includes muscle strength training, reaching and grasping exercises, manual tone control, motor facilitation, and activities of daily living training. During the study period, participants will not wear any hand dynamic orthosis during training.
