简要总结
This study procedure involves comparing joint position sense of hand between people with stroke and age-matched healthy individuals using end-effector robotic device. Participants will be made to sit comfortably on a chair with arm rest in front of and close to the robotic device. Their forearm will be placed on the cushioned arm rest of the device and strapped. Assessment of joint position sense of hand will be done by the device in following 3 positions- 1) lumbrical grip position 2) thumb with index finger 3) thumb with lateral 3 fingers. After the familiar trial, this experiment will be repeated for 3 trials. An average of 3 trials will be considered for analysis. The data obtained will be stored and analyzed.
