简要总结
The research team will develop a novel training tool to improve finger joint coordination, to address the unmet need in the current rehabilitation, thereby enhancing hand function and contributing to improved independence and quality of life for Veterans with stroke.
详细描述
The research team will determine feasibility of training using CA and TA controllers in subacute stroke. Specifically, we will examine if joint coordination improves over a training session. The investigators will compare the extent of improvement for each controller and impairment severity.

结局指标
主要结局
change in finger joint torque assistance
时间窗: from the 1st half to the 2nd half of the 1-hour training session
Change in finger joint torque assistance needed from the 1st half to the 2nd half of the 1-hour training session. Reduction in torque is considered a good outcome. There is no predefined minimum/maximum.
