研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether rhythmic upper-limb movement training in post-stroke patients allows to improve only this particular type of movements or if it also improves some parameters of discrete movements. Based on our results we hope to be able to answer a fundamental question: are rhythmic and discrete movements two independent primitives?
详细描述
Patients are assessed four times during this longitudinal study. One month separates the first two assessment, next patients are trained 12 times during one month with rhythmic movement training on an end-effector robot. After this month, patients are assessed a third time and three months later a fourth time in order to study long-time benefits of the therapy.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in smoothness of rhythmic circular movement after rhythmic therapy
时间窗: 1 day to 1 week before therapy and 1day to 1 week after therapy
Patients are asked to fulfill 10 circular movements on the end-effector robot Reaplan. The movement smoothness are assessed
Change in movement smoothness in rhythmic straight movements after one month of rhythmic therapy
时间窗: 1 week to 1 day before therapy and 1 day to 1 week after therapy
Patients are asked to fulfill rhythmic movements on the end-effector robot Reaplan. The smoothness is assessed with following metrics: * number of peaks in velocity profile * TENT value * logarithmic dimensionless square jerk
Change in accuracy of discrete straight movements after one month of rhythmic therapy
时间窗: 1 week to 1 day before therapy and 1 day to 1 week after therapy
Patients are asked to fulfill discrete movements on the end-effector robot Reaplan. The accuracy is assessed.
Change in movement smoothness in discrete straight movements after one month of rhythmic therapy
时间窗: 1 week to 1 day before therapy and 1 day to 1 week after therapy
Patients are asked to fulfill discrete movements on the end-effector robot Reaplan. The smoothness is assessed with following metrics: * number of peaks in velocity profile * TENT value * logarithmic dimensionless square jerk
次要结局
- Change of the general motricity of the patient due to one month rhythmic therapy(1 week to 1 day before therapy and 1 day to 1 week after therapy)
- Assessment of the natural evolution of the patient(4 to 5 weeks before therapy and 1 week to 1 day before therapy)
- Therapy after effects(1 day to one week after therapy and 3 months after therapy)
