Case in brief
This case series involved three patients with chronic stroke who underwent five sessions of robotic training using the RYMO (Mobi-L) device. Assessments before and after treatment indicated improvements in spasticity, particularly in the elbow and wrist, as measured by the Modified Ashworth Scale. While motor function showed slight enhancements, overall satisfaction with the treatment was high, and patients reported moderate-positive changes in their perceived functional abilities.
Diagnostic / clinical pearl
Clinicians should consider robotic-assisted therapy as a potential adjunct for managing spasticity and enhancing patient satisfaction in chronic stroke rehabilitation.
