A pilot study for self-guided, active robotic training of proprioception of the upper limb in chronic stroke

Our novel proprioceptive training paradigm is one of the first to implement a self-guided sensory training protocol. We observed improvements in motor function and proprioception for individuals with stroke. This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of self-guided proprioceptive training to improve motor and sensory function in individuals with stroke. Future studies aim to examine multi-day training to examine longer-term impacts on upper limb sensorimotor function.
