Abstract : Functional deficit in the arm is a serious concern for stroke patients. Treatment for such functional deficits is critically important for stroke rehabilitation, because approximately 15.30% of stroke survivors experience long-lasting hemiparesis in their affected arm. For such patients, several neurorehabilitation approaches using engineering devices and medical resources have recently been developed for hemiparetic arm deficit (i.e. Robotics, Neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and botulinum toxin type A injection). However, even though scientific evidence has supported the efficacy of each, in the clinical setting we often experience difficulty applying these interventions in stroke patients with severe arm deficit. For example, previous studies have shown that neurorehabilitation approaches using engineering devices alone improved function but not the use of the affected arm in real-world tasks. Guyatte, et al. states that based on the concept of evidence-based medicine, when direct evidence is not available, that combining several interventions is effective. To overcome the limitation of the neurorehabilitation approaches using engineering devices alone, our research group combined multiple interventions : constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT), engineering devices and medical resources. We introduced CIMT since it compensates for the limitations of engineering devices and effectively promotes using the hemiparetic arm in the real-word. In this symposium, we discussed the effectiveness of our new intervention combining CIMT with several neurorehabilitation approaches using engineering devices and the role of therapist in such a scenario.
