Brief report of a clinical experience 1 t 2t 3 z-1 -1 2 Federica Bovolenta Patrizio Sale Valentina Dall Armi Pierina Clerici and Marco Franceschini Abstract This study was aimed at verifying the improvement on the motor impairment and functionality in 19 patients with chronic hemiparesis after stroke treated with a robot-aided rehabilitation protocol using the ReoGo system Motorika Medical Ltd Israel and at evaluating the persistence of the effects after 1 month. The study also focused on the actual possibility of administering the robot-aided therapy with the ReoGo for the upper limbs and on the patients degree of acceptance and compliance with the treatment. Subjects underwent an assessment prior to the start of the rehabilitation project T-1 one at the start T0 one at the end of the treatment T1 and one after one month from the end of the treatment T2 . The following tests were administered i Fugl-Meyer FM upper limb Ashworth scale AS Functional Independence Measure FIM T-1 -T2 ii strength evaluation Visual Analogue Scale VAS for pain Frenchay Arm test FAT Box and Block test BBT Timed Up and Go TUG test T0 - T2 . Additionally the Euro-QoL questionnaire and a VAS for the treatment satisfaction were administered to the subjects. Non-statistical difference of scores at T-1 and T0 on almost the entire battery of tasks suggested a stable patients performance prior to the start of the rehabilitation. With the exception of the Medical Research Council MRC and the AS sub-scales measuring -as appropriate- strength and spasticity of the shoulder triceps and wrist all scores showed a significant increase between T0 and T1. The improvement on the pain could not be proved significant p . A .
