简要总结
Stroke rehabilitation for stroke patients can enhance the upper and lower limb function, daily of daily activity improvement, and be beneficial to the family members' quality of life. Literature studies have supported the use of tele-rehabilitation to be as effective as stroke home rehabilitation. Stroke tele-rehabilitation model can use smartphones and apps to practice the mobile health model. Nevertheless, effects of tele-rehabilitation analysis for the proximal recovery of the stroke upper limbs still need to be explored. The main purpose of this research is to develop a smart phone with app system for stroke upper limb motor training, and further analyze its feasibility and treatment effects. The investigators randomly assigned chronic home stroke cases to the experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=20), each group received 8 weeks of treatment.
详细描述
Stroke rehabilitation (including occupational therapy and physical therapy) for stroke patients can enhance the upper and lower limb function, daily of daily activity improvement, and be beneficial to the family members' quality of life. Literature studies have supported the use of tele-rehabilitation to be as effective as stroke home rehabilitation. Stroke tele-rehabilitation model can use smartphones and apps to practice the mobile health model. This technology with remote rehabilitation have the important characteristics, including ease of use, high-intensity, repetitive exercises, and providing feedback information, to facilitate the recovery of training functions. Nevertheless, effects of tele-rehabilitation analysis for the proximal recovery of the stroke upper limbs still need to be explored. The main purpose of this research is to develop a smart phone with app system for stroke upper limb motor training, and further analyze its feasibility and treatment effects. The investigators randomly assigned chronic home stroke cases to the experimental group (n=20) and control group (n=20), each group received 8 weeks of treatment.

结局指标
主要结局
FUGL-MEYER ASSESSMENT-UE, FMA)
时间窗: pre-test, post-test(Change from pre-test FUGL-MEYER ASSESSMENT-UE after 8 weeks' intervention)
Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) scale is an index to assess the sensorimotor impairment in individuals who have had stroke.
Box and Block Test
时间窗: pre-test, post-test(Change from pre-test Box and Block Test after 8 weeks' intervention)
The Box and Block Test (BBT) measures unilateral gross manual dexterity. It is a quick, simple and inexpensive test. It can be used with a wide range of populations, including clients with stroke.
Grip Strength Assessment
时间窗: pre-test, post-test(Change from pre-test Grip Strength Assessment after 8 weeks' intervention)
Grip strength is a measure of muscular strength or the maximum force/tension generated by one's forearm muscles. It can be used as a screening tool for the measurement of upper body strength and overall strength.
System Usability Scale
时间窗: only post-test(after 8 weeks' intervention)
The System Usability Scale, or SUS, is a simple survey that provides a high-level score for the usability of a product.
The Ruff 2 & 7 Selective Attention Test
时间窗: pre-test, post-test(Change from pre-test The Ruff 2 & 7 Selective Attention Test after 8 weeks' intervention)
The Ruff 2 and 7 Selective Attention Test (RSAT) is designed to measure selective attention.
