In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Recent work on large cohorts of chronic stroke (\>6 months post-stroke) have shown that intensive training of the upper limb in the chronic stroke patients can lead to substantial motor and functional gains that are maintained at 6 months post intervention. A very prolonged (12 weeks) and very intensive (5 hours daily) training applied to chronic patients after stroke brings a substantial gain both motor and functional which is maintained at 3 months post intervention. Robotic rehabilitation have been shown to be as effective as any other treatment used in rehabilitation. But the methods of implementation remain widely debated. At that time, most robotic therapies have tried to reproduce functional movement mainly pointing objects. We want to demonstrate that analytic movements of the elbow and the shoulder performed with the Luna-EMG robot can replace part of usual physiotherapy trea
