What Roles Does Hand Rehab Robotic A5 Play in Hand Rehab?

What roles does hand rehabilitation robotic play in hand rehabilitation process? 

Before we answer this question, let’s see what a Hand Functional Active-Passive Training & Evaluation System is.

Hand Functional Active-Passive Training & Evaluation System A5 is developed according to the theories of Motor Relearning Programme (MRP) in Rehabilitation. Medicine and applying electromyogram acquisition technology which can simulates motions of human fingers and wrist in real time. The main functions of A5 are evaluations of myodynamia signals of musculus flexor and musculus extensor for patients’ fingers, passive training, myoelectrical signal triggering mode training, visual interactive games and archive searching & printing function.

Then, let’s have a look at what therapeutic effect Hand Rehabilitation Robotic A5 can achieve.

1. Promote rehabilitation of hand function and prevent muscle atrophy;

2. Improve muscle strength and endurance of the patients’ hands through progressive training;

3. Improve coordination of each joint of a finger;

4. Through feedback training, brain could establish a compensation area for brain function control. Patients can restore their hand movement function.

So, in what cases can we use Hand Rehabilitation Robotics?

1. Rehabilitation of joint function after hand and wrist injury;

2. Rehabilitation of joint stiffness and joint function after hand surgery;

3. Training of hand and wrist ADL (activity of daily living) after central nervous system injury.

(*Contraindications: bone cancer, distortion of articular surface, spastic paralysis, unstable fractures, uncontrolled infections, etc.)

What Make Yeecons Hand Rehabilitation Robotic Stand Out?

One: Surface Myoelectricity Drive

Electromyogram acquisition poles are adhered to patient’s extensor muscle and musculus flexor to receive commands from patient’s brain. When a patient wants to move his or her hand, the brain will send relevant command which causes the changes of electromyogram. The acquisition poles will receive the command, process it and finally utilize it to drive robotic hand of A5.

Two: Thumb Electromyography Signal Evaluation & Drive

The unique thumb electromyography signals evaluation function which generates more accurate and comprehensive evaluation results than other similar product in the market. Thumb Electromyography itself can be the power source to drive the robotic hand. Therapists can choose single-finger or all-finger training mode which has a certain degree of pertinence. Thumb Electromyography Signal Evaluation & Drive technology is absent in most of domestic hand rehabilitation device and A5 fills the gap in this field.

Three: Wrist Training

Our Hand Rehabilitation Robotics can control the wrist’s range of motion to train the wrist separately. It is also possible to fix the wrist at an angular position, training fingers only or exercise the wrist and finger simultaneously.

Four: Different Hand Compound Training

According to patients’ condition, the joint training of different combinations of fingers and wrist can be selected in a targeted manner. We have integrated a variety of training methods to A5 to treat patients with different situations.
