    Area of Science:

    • Rehabilitation Engineering
    • Neurorehabilitation
    • Robotics in Medicine

    Background:

    • Stroke is a primary cause of long-term disability globally.
    • Traditional stroke rehabilitation faces challenges in accessibility and cost.
    • Home-based robotic solutions offer a potential alternative for hand recovery.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy and user experience of the HandMATE exoskeleton for home-based hand rehabilitation in chronic stroke patients.
    • To assess improvements in motor function and patient satisfaction over a 4-month period.
    • To identify challenges and areas for improvement in home-based robotic therapy.

    Main Methods:

    • 14 chronic stroke patients used a customized HandMATE exoskeleton at home for 4 months.
    • Phase 1 involved weekly clinic visits; Phase 2 involved unsupervised use.
    • Assessments included Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA), Action Research Arm Test (ARAT), and motion capture.

    Main Results:

    • Statistically significant improvements in FMA and ARAT scores were observed after Phase 1.
    • Substantial, though not statistically significant, improvements were noted by the end of Phase 2.
    • High user satisfaction was reported, alongside feedback for device enhancement.

    Conclusions:

    • The HandMATE shows promise for improving stroke recovery outcomes by overcoming barriers to clinic-based therapy.
    • Declining device usage in Phase 2 highlights the need for enhanced user engagement strategies.
    • Future development should focus on durability, portability, and engagement to facilitate broader adoption of home-based robotic rehabilitation.
