Brief Summary: We will test on persons with chronic impairment due to stroke

1 whether the order in which robot therapy is delivered influences outcomes shoulder-and-elbow before wrist vs wrist before shoulder-and-elbow
2 whether we should train the shoulder elbow and wrist at the same time or on different days
Detailed Description: The Effect of Proximal and Distal Training on Stroke Recovery

Specific Aim 1 Test whether task specific wrist robotic training improves motor performance among persons with chronic impairment after stroke

Specific Aim 2 Test whether the order in which robot therapy is delivered influences outcomes shoulder-and-elbow before wrist vs wrist before shoulder-and-elbow

Specific Aim 3 Test whether there is generalization across different joints shoulder elbow vs wrist

Specific Aim 4 Test whether there is any interference between training across different joints among persons with chronic impairment after stroke

Briefly we will invite persons with chronic impairment due to stroke to participate in a study that will train them first on wrist for 6 weeks and then on the shoulder-and-elbow for an additional 6 weeks or vice-versa A third group will train in alternate days for 12 weeks on the shoulder-and-elbow or the wrist while a fourth group will be trained on the shoulder elbow and wrist on the same day Outcomes will be measured using standard instruments as well as robot-based measures We expect that results from this study will provide an objective basis for maximizing this kind of therapy
