Effects of contralesional robot-assisted hand training in patients with unilateral spatial neglect following stroke: a case series study
Conclusions:
Some caution is warranted when interpreting our results, as the responses to the intervention were variable and might have been due to a placebo effect or fluctuating clinical conditions. However, robot-assisted hemispatial neglect therapy might be useful in stroke patients. Larger-scale investigations are needed to confirm our preliminary findings.
