Study Overview

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to compare the effectiveness of two models of rehabilitation:

  • traditional neurological rehabilitation, and
  • neurological rehabilitation combined with a rehabilitation robot (Luna by EGZOTech).

An additional goal is to test the qualitative diagnostic reference using the surface electromyogram of the Luna robot (certified as a Medical Device) for functional diagnostics based on standardized clinical tests.
