Abstract

Abstract Aim. To study effectiveness of use of robotic devices with software support and patient-specific feedback Armeo and Amadeo in the late stroke recovery period. Materials and methods. The study included 65 patients (30 male, 35 female) aged from 18 to 86 years. The study participants were randomized into 2 groups: in group 1 (study group; n=33) neurorehabilitation course included robotic devices with software support and patient-specific feedback Armeo and Amadeo use for 18 days 2 times a day; in group 2 (n=32) a standard rehabilitation course was conducted. Results. Rehabilitation course with the use of robotic devices in late stroke recovery period in group 1 resulted in better improvement of upper extremity motor function in comparison with standard rehabilitation methods. Conclusion. The use of robotic devices with software support and patient-specific feedback Armeo and Amadeo in neurological function recovery in patients in the late stroke recovery period increases the effectiveness of rehabilitation course in comparison with standard rehabilitation methods.
