OBJECTIVE: This study aims to develop an assistive technology-180° rotating feeding spoon that could improve the ability of eating of self-care patients with upper extremity dyskinesia.
METHODS: The Brunnstrom 6-stage rating of hemiplegia was adopted. During the different recovery stages of the upper limbs, the patients orally ate using a feeding spoon with a non-rotatory head and a 180° rotating feeding spoon. The ability of these patients to eat by themselves was observed, and the basic activity of daily living (BADL) was assessed using the Barthel index (BI).
RESULTS: The Brunnstrom assessment scale was used to analyze the results of the patient's upper limb function examination, and the results revealed that the 180° rotating feeding spoon could assist patients with different degrees of upper limb dysfunction when eating independently.
CONCLUSIONS: The 180° rotating feeding spoon can assist patients with upper limb dysfunction when eating independently. For patients with different degrees of upper limb dysfunction, the spoon can provide different degrees of aid.
