Few interventions address multiple sclerosis (MS) arm dysfunction but robotics and functional electrical stimulation (FES) appear promising. This paper investigates the feasibility of combining FES with passive robotic support during virtual reality (VR) training tasks to improve upper limb function in people with multiple sclerosis (pwMS). The system assists patients in following a specified trajectory...
Evidence supports the combination of electrical stimulation (ES) and task specific training in rehabilitation of the upper extremity following stroke. The aim of this study is to develop a rehabilitation system that delivers precisely controlled levels of stimulation to the shoulder, elbow and wrist during goal-oriented activity utilising everyday real objects. Iterative learning control (ILC) is...
To provide effective stroke rehabilitation, a control scheme is developed for upper arm tracking in 3D space using electrical stimulation. In accordance with clinical need, the case where stimulation is applied to two muscles in the arm and shoulder is considered, with the arm supported against gravity by an exoskeletal mechanism. An upper limb model with five degrees of freedom is first developed...
