Brief Summary:
This pilot study examines the feasibility and potential effects on upper limb (UL) motor function using a wearable device integrated with a telerehabilitation function in the home setting with chronic stroke survivors.
The study seeks to address the question:
\- Is wearable device intervention more effective in promoting arm recovery in stroke survivors than conventional therapy for home-based training? We hypothesize that using a multimodal feedback system in the wearable device can provide more effective training to improve the hemiplegic UL function of chronic stroke survivors than conventional therapy.
This is a single-blinded randomized crossover pilot trial. Twelve participants will be randomly assigned into two groups: the experimental (wristwatch) and the control (conventional therapy) groups. Participants in the experimental group will undergo a 4-week wearable device treatment followed by a 4-week conventional training.
Participants in the control group will complete conventional therapy and then wearable device treatment. There will be a 3-week washout period between treatments. Upper limb motor outcome measures will be evaluated at the following intervals: baseline, post-treatment at 4-week, after a 3-week washout period for pre-intervention, and post-intervention after crossover by research assistants blinded to group allocation.
