A scoping review of design requirements for a home-based upper limb rehabilitation robot for stroke

CONCLUSION: This is the first research to summarize the design requirements for home-based upper limb rehabilitation robots for stroke survivors. The need for a safe, comfortable, easy to use device which can be individualized and promote specific movements and tasks emerged. The result of this paper captures the design requirements that can be used in future for the development of a design specification. It provides designers and researchers guidance about the real-world needs for home-based upper limb rehabilitation robots for stroke.PMID:34281494 | DOI:10.1080/10749357.2021.1943797
