Abstract
To analyze the application of upper limb rehabilitation robot assistant therapy in upper
limb function rehabilitation of stroke patients with hemiplegia. Methods: Ninety patients with hemiplegia after
stroke were randomly divided into the control group and observation group with 45 patients in each group. Both
groups received routine rehabilitation training, and the observation group additionally received upper limb
rehabilitation robot assistant treatment. The Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS), Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Upper
Extremity (FMA-UE), and Function Independent Measure (FIM) scores of the two groups were compared before
treatment and one month after treatment. Results: The MAS score of the elbow joint in the observation group
decreased significantly one month after treatment compared with that of the control group (P<0.01), and there
was no significant difference in control group scores before and after treatment (P>0.05). The MAS score of the
shoulder joint in both groups decreased one month after treatment, and furthermore, that of the observation group
was decreased compared to the control group (P<0.01). The FMA-UE score of both groups was higher at one
month after treatment than before treatment, and that of the observation group was increased compared to the
control group (P<0.01). Compared with before treatment, the FIM score in both groups were significantly higher
one month after treatment, and that of the observation group was significantly higher compared to the control
group (P<0.01). Conclusion: When used in addition to a foundation of routine rehabilitation training, upper
limb rehabilitation robot assistant treatment of stroke patients with hemiplegia can effectively improve upper
limb motor function and promote motor function recovery.
