Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

•Hemiplegic patients secondary to first cerebrovascular accidents
•Onset ≥ 6 months
•Fugl-Meyer Assessment score ≥ 19
•Cognitively intact enough to understand and follow the instructions from the investigator

Exclusion Criteria

•Severe upper extremity pain that could interfere with rehabilitation therapy
•Neurological disorders other than stroke that can cause motor deficits
•Uncontrolled severe medical conditions.
