    Area of Science:

    • Neurorehabilitation
    • Robotics in Medicine
    • Stroke Recovery

    Background:

    • Increasing the dose of upper limb therapy is crucial for stroke survivors.
    • Actuated robotic devices can assist movement and adapt to patient deficits.
    • Unsupervised use of complex rehabilitation devices at home is rarely explored.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the feasibility of unsupervised home therapy using the ReHandyBot device.
    • To evaluate the increase in therapy dose during unsupervised training.
    • To assess device usability and user experience in stroke survivors.

    Main Methods:

    • A pilot study involving stroke inpatients using the ReHandyBot device.
    • Two weeks of supervised training followed by two weeks of unsupervised home therapy.
    • Evaluation of therapy dose, usability, and user experience.

    Main Results:

    • Four out of five participants learned to use the device unsupervised.
    • Three participants completed the two-week unsupervised home therapy protocol.
    • Participants performed an average of 518.3 minutes of therapy at home.
    • The ReHandyBot device was well-accepted, with positive usability and user experience ratings.

    Conclusions:

    • Unsupervised home therapy with the ReHandyBot is feasible for stroke survivors with no to mild cognitive impairments.
    • Actuated robotic devices can be utilized effectively in unsupervised home settings.
    • Positive results support further investigation into ReHandyBot for home-based rehabilitation.
