BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: This case report describes a training program comprising repetitive task practice (RTP) and robotic therapy for a patient with subacute stroke and resultant impaired upper-extremity function.
CASE DESCRIPTION: A 63-year-old man with right-sided hemiplegia resulting from a hemorrhagic stroke received a combined intervention of RTP and robotic therapy for 4 hours per day for 3 weeks. Clinical and kinetic evaluations were performed before and after intervention.
OUTCOMES: Following the combined intervention, clinical improvements in hand function were observed, maximum grip force decreased slightly, and interlimb coupling decreased.
DISCUSSION: An intervention of RTP with robotic therapy may be an effective method to improve upper-extremity function following stroke. Furthermore, the case suggests that improvements in strength are not necessary for improved dexterous function, provided that a minimal level of strength is present.
