Hand-Arm-Shoulder Robot

The use of innovative technologies in physical therapy processes allows patients to recover faster and more effectively. In this context, the Arm Robot is among the important innovations that have attracted attention in the physical therapy and rehabilitation sector in recent years and are preferred by leading health centers such as our Robotic Rehabilitation Center.

What is Hand Arm Shoulder Robot?

Hand Arm Shoulder robot is a tool that combines virtual reality with the help of robotic technology to increase patients' muscle strength and joint range of motion through virtual reality games.

What is our Treatment Goal in Hand Arm Shoulder Robot?

Practicing in a virtual environment ensures active rather than passive participation during the session. Our treatment goal is to start the practice passively, continue with device-assisted work, and eventually complete the game with the patient's own muscle power.

So, what are the contributions of this Hand Arm Shoulder Robot to the physical therapy process and in what areas is it used?

Hand Arm Shoulder Robot technology plays a major role in the treatment process of patients with stroke, spinal cord injuries, brachial plexus, brain damage and various neurological disorders. Thanks to these devices, it is possible to perform more controlled and repeatable movements on the patients' muscular and skeletal systems, which contributes to the improvement of motor skills and functions. The Hand-Arm Robot used in our Robotic Rehabilitation Center can safely and effectively guide the rehabilitation process and provide personalized treatment programs for patients.

Stroke Patients
Stroke is a condition that occurs as a result of cerebral hemorrhage or clot in a certain part of the brain, which can lead to serious complications such as loss of motor functions. During the post-stroke rehabilitation process, thanks to robotic-assisted therapies, the patient can achieve faster and more effective results in regaining motor skills.

Cerebral Palsy and Other Neurological Diseases
Cerebral palsy is a condition that occurs due to brain damage that usually occurs before, during or after birth. Hand-Arm Robot therapy is used to increase muscle control and improve motor skills that develop due to this disease.

Spinal Cord Injuries
Following spinal cord injuries, patients' ability to perform resistance activities and the motor functions of their upper extremities may be greatly reduced. The repetitive movement support of Hand-Arm Robot therapy helps increase the functional capacity of these patients.

Patients in Need of Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Patients who require physical therapy for orthopedic reasons such as fractures, dislocations and post-operative conditions in the arm and hand structures can also benefit from strengthening, gaining flexibility and reducing pain through Hand-Arm Robot therapy.

What is the Application of Hand Arm Shoulder Robot?

The physiotherapist may choose to work on all movements of the hand, elbow and wrist simultaneously, depending on the patient's muscle weakness during the application. It can also manage the difficulty level of the exercise by making adjustments to the amount of gravity support depending on the strength of the upper extremity. There are various virtual reality games that the patient can choose for joint limitation. For example, while a patient who had a stroke 6 months ago cannot pour his coffee, a simulation can be created with virtual reality games. Thanks to these games and simulations, the patient's participation in daily life activities is supported and improved.

What are the Benefits of Hand Arm Shoulder Robot?

• Hand arm shoulder robot contributes significantly to improving muscle weakness and dysfunction caused by neurological diseases.
• The hand arm shoulder robot gives feedback to the individual during application, thanks to game-themed virtual reality systems, and accelerates the patient's achievement of rehabilitation goals with difficulty levels that can be changed from patient to patient.
• It also motivates children with complaints of muscle weakness due to cerebral palsy, brachial plexus and neurological reasons through games and increases their participation in exercise. At the same time, it provides an interesting opportunity for the exercise practice and repetition that older patients need.
• When visual feedback on a hand-arm shoulder robot is combined with intense exercise, patients with congenital or acquired motor deficits that cause central or peripheral nervous system disorders can reestablish neuronal pathways and regenerate brain nerve cells.
• In children with attention deficit disorder in addition to neurological problems, target-oriented functional training plays a role in attracting the child's attention and increasing his motivation.
• Robot-assisted upper extremity therapy is more effective than conventional treatment in adult paralyzed patients and children with cerebral palsy, as the patient's active participation is a factor that increases its effectiveness.
• The hand arm shoulder robot allows patients to independently improve their own functional level.
• The hand arm shoulder robot reduces functional impairment in both the acute and chronic periods of recovery in patients whose upper extremities are affected after stroke.

Patient-Specific Treatments and Development of Motor Function

Hand Arm Shoulder Robot technologies allow customizing physical interventions according to the individual's needs. For example, stroke patients often have difficulty regaining certain movement abilities. The Hand Arm Shoulder Robot in our center can be adjusted according to the needs of each patient, creating specific movement scenarios and motivating and supporting patients to perform these movements. As a result of this process, an observable improvement occurs in the patients' muscle strength, coordination and motor skills.

Advantages of Hand Arm Shoulder Robot Technology

In physical therapy processes, repeating certain movements is of great importance in terms of developing new neural pathways and strengthening muscle memory. Another benefit is that it increases the patient's motivation. The engaging nature of the technology encourages patients to actively participate in the treatment process.
