Primary | Score on Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) | The ARAT is a 19-item measure that assesses upper limb functioning. The ARAT is divided into 4 sub-tests (grasp, grip, pinch, and gross arm movement). Performance on each item is rated on a 4-point ordinal scale ranging from 0 (cannot perform) to 3 (normal performance). Scores on the ARAT range from 0-57 points, with higher scores indicating better performance. | Baseline; Post-test at Week 4 | |
Primary | Score on the Upper Extremity Component of the Fugl-Meyer Scale (UEFM) | The Fugl-Meyer (FM) Assessment of Motor Recovery evaluates and measures recovery in post-stroke hemiplegic patients. The FM uses a 3-point ordinal scale from 0 (cannot perform) to 2 (performs fully). The FM has 5 domains with a maximum score of 226 points. Subscales can be administered with out using the full FM. The Upper Extremity component (UEFM) consists of 33 items with a score range of 0-66. Higher score indicate better performance. Please note: An a prior decision was made to only perform the UEFM once at post-testing: post test without robotic assistance. The UEFM assesses capacity of the arm primarily through gross motor tasks, and comparatively few grasping and pinching tasks. Thus, it was presumed that robotic assistance would have minimal influence on UEFM scores. In other words, the UEFM was intended as a outcome measure to primarily evaluate the rehabilitative effects of training with the device, as opposed to evaluating the assistive capacity of using the device. |
Baseline; Post-test at Week 4 | |
Secondary | Score on Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) | The Ashworth or Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) is a measure of spasticity originally developed as a simple clinical classification to assess the anti-spastic effects of carisoprodol in multiple sclerosis. It is rated on a 5-point nominal scale using subjective clinical assessments of tone ranging from 0 (no increases in tone) to 4 (limb rigid in flexion/extension or abduction/adduction). Please note: MAS is officially scored on a 5-point scale that includes "1+" (full range: 0, 1, 1+, 2, 3, 4). However non-numeric scores are not allowable in the Outcome Measure Data Table. Therefore, the scores were transformed from a 0-4 scale (including 1+) to a 0-5 scale (excluding 1+). The reported medians for all but Finger Flexors were not impacted by the scale transformation. Finger Flexor median is reported as 2 in the Outcome Measure Data Table, but this can be understood as a true median of 1+ if using the original MAS scoring scale. |

Secondary | Score on Box and Blocks Test (BBT) | The BBT measures unilateral gross manual dexterity using blocks and a 2-compartment box. At the start, there are 150 blocks in one compartment and the score represents the number of blocks transferred from one compartment to the other compartment in 60 seconds. Each hand is scored separately, however only scores for the impaired (hemiplegic) hand are reported. Scores can range from 0-150, with higher scores indicating better performance of manual dexterity. | Baseline; Post-test at Week 4 | |
Secondary | Number of Participants Completing Treatment Protocol | The number of participants who completed the full treatment protocol (12 training sessions). | 4 Weeks | |
Secondary | Total Number of Adverse Events During Intervention | All adverse events will be tracked during the course of the intervention. The Principal Investigator will review any event and assess it as either adverse or non-significant. | 4 Weeks |
