Eye tracking and virtual reality in the rehabilitation of mobility of hemianopia patients: a user experience study

development of compensatory strategies, such as certain eye movement patterns (Howard and Rowe, 2018). While some hemianopia patients are able to spontaneously develop compensatory strategies for their visual field loss, others retain difficulties, in particular with detecting objects in the periphery in situations when they are moving, e.g. during walking (Iorizzo et al., 2011). These patients can enter vision rehabilitation to learn compensatory eye movement strategies (for an overview see Pollock et al

AUGMENTED REALITY GAME BASED MULTI-USAGE REHABILITATION THERAPIST FOR STROKE PATIENTS

For the surviving stroke patients that are affected physically and mentally, they are required rehabilitation after the stroke. Rehabilitation can be quite expensive on the patient and their families. The augmented reality rehabilitation gaming system aims to decrease the dependency on supervised therapy. This paper presents two augmented reality games. The games focus on rehabilitating stroke patients affected with upper limb disabilities. The games simulate current physical therapy techniques

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF 3D PRINTED MYOELECTRIC ROBOTIC EXOSKELETON FOR HAND REHABILITATION

The development of dynamic rehabilitation devices can be evaluated as a research fast-growing field. Indeed, robot-assisted therapy is an advanced new technology mainly in stroke rehabilitation. Although patients benefit from this enormous development of technology, including the presence of rehabilitation robots, the therapeutic field still suffering a lack in hand robotic rehabilitation devices. In this context, this work proposes a new design of a 3D printed hand exoskeleton for the stroke

DESIGN OF SMART ROBOT FOR WRIST REHABILITATION

Generally, the rehabilitation process needs a physical interactions between patients and therapists. Based on the principles governing such human-human interactions (HHI), the design of rehabilitation robots received several attempts in order to abstract the HHI in human-robot interaction (HRI). To achieve this goal, the rehabilitation robot should be smart and provides a useful and comprehensive platform to track the patient status. In this paper, a biofeedback-based high fidelity smart robot

Although the treatment strategy is different in principle when corticosteroid is locally injected to the carpal tunnel, the nerve area exhibited a slight increase in mild cases, but a significant decrement in moderate cases(3). We expected CSA would decrease after the therapy because edema would regress, but this did not happen. Our data indicated softening of the median nerve after 6 weeks of rehabilitation (Fig. 5).

Shuffling the Deckchairs: Multi-agency Working and the Continuing Lack of Identification of People with Vision Impairments

Many orientation and mobility (O&M) professionals working to meet the needs of children and adults with vision impairment may do so as a part of multi-agency rehabilitation teams. However, from a study of current literature in the fields of vision impairment, multiple-disability and intellectual disability, it is apparent that multiagency participation does not invariably identify with accuracy, all those requiring a service.
