      Article
      Restricted access - publisher's policy
      This paper presents a new rehabilitation system that is able to adapt its performance to patient's psychophysiological state during the execution of robotic rehabilitation tasks. Using this approach, the motivation and ...
    • Classification models of action research arm test activities in post-stroke patients based on human hand motion 

      Padilla Magaña, Jesús Fernando; Peña Pitarch, Esteve (2022-12-01)
      Article
      Open Access
      The Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) presents a ceiling effect that prevents the detection of improvements produced with rehabilitation treatments in stroke patients with mild finger joint impairments. The aim of this study ...

      Torner Ribé, Jordi; Serrancolí, Gil; Ayestaran Arriaga, Inés; Alpiste Penalba, Francesc; Iriarte, Andrea; Margelí, Carles; Mayans, Berta; García, Andrés; Morancho, Sergio; Molas, Cristina (OmniaScience, 2021-02-01)
      Conference lecture
      Open Access
      Virtual Reality (VR) is having an increasing influence in fields such as education, marketing or scientific research. Thus, biomedical and health applications are also improving due to advances in Virtual Reality. The aim ...
    • Design and usability study of 3D printed objects for neurorehabilitation of the upper limb 

      Solé Galindo, Eduard (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2023-07-21)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Institut Guttmann
      After suffering an injury that affects the motor and sensory functions of the upper limb, a rehabilitation process begins with the aim of recovering, as much as possible, the lost functions and allow the patients to have ...
    • Development of a 2DOF robotic device for hand rehabilitation 

      Font, Francisco José (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya / Eidegenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich, 2011)
      Master thesis (pre-Bologna period)
      Open Access
      Most of the stroke survivors lose hand and arm skill which can be partially recovered through intensive rehabilitation. Studies show that robot-assisted rehabilitation is e ective, providing a more motivating environment ...
    • Gamification in stroke rehabilitation 

      Castro Cros, Martí de (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-07-12)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      Stroke has a high incidence in the population and it is one of the leading causes of functional impairments among adults. Brain damage rehabilitation is still a relatively undeveloped field and some research lines are ...
    • Rehabilitation profiles of older adult stroke survivors admitted to intermediate care units: A multi-centre study 

      Pérez, Laura M.; Inzitari, Marco; Quinn, Terence J.; Montaner, Joan; Gavaldà Mestre, Ricard; Duarte, Esther; Coll Planas, Laura; Cerdá, Mercé; Santaeugenia, Sebastia; Closa, Conxita; Gallofre, Miquel (2016-11-09)
      Article
      Open Access
      Background: Stroke is a major cause of disability in older adults, but the evidence around post-acute treatment is limited and heterogeneous. We aimed to identify profiles of older adult stroke survivors admitted to ...

    • Study of synergy patterns during the execution of stroke rehabilitation exercises 

      Urra, Oiane; Casals Gelpí, Alicia; Jané Campos, Raimon (2014)
      Conference lecture
      Open Access
      Stroke is a leading cause of disability, being motor impairments its major consequence. Despite rehabilitation, more than 60% of the patients report upper-limb motor dysfunction. The design of novel rehabilitation strategies ...
    • Synergy analysis as a tool to design and assess an effective stroke rehabilitation 

      Urra, Oiane; Casals Gelpí, Alicia; Jané Campos, Raimon (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2014)
      Conference lecture
      Open Access
      The poor rehabilitation success rate, including the cases of ineffective and detrimental adaptations, make stroke a leading cause of disability. Thus, it is essential to recognize the mechanisms driving healthy motor ...
