Invited Commentary on Comparison of Robotics, Functional Electrical Stimulation, and Motor Learning Methods for Treatment of Persistent Upper Extremity Dysfunction After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
In this issue of Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Jessica McCabe and colleagues report findings from their methodologically sound, dose-matched clinical trial in 39 patients beyond 6 months poststroke. In this phase II trial, the effects of 60 treatment sessions, each involving 3.5 hours of intensive practice plus either 1.5 hours of functional electrical stimulation (FES) or a shoulder-arm robotic therapy, were compared with 5 hours of intensive daily practice alone. Although no significant between-group differences were found on the primary outcome measure of Arm Motor Ability Test and the secondary outc...

Comparison of Robotics, Functional Electrical Stimulation, and Motor Learning Methods for Treatment of Persistent Upper Extremity Dysfunction After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
To compare response to upper-limb treatment using robotics plus motor learning (ML) versus functional electrical stimulation (FES) plus ML versus ML alone, according to a measure of complex functional everyday tasks for chronic, severely impaired stroke survivors.

The Reality of Virtual Reality In Stroke Rehabilitation
To design, implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a knowledge translation (KT) strategy to support therapists in acquiring proficiency with the Interactive Rehabilitation Exercise System (IREX; GestureTek) while emphasizing integration of motor learning strategies (MLS) during virtual reality (VR) interventions. VR systems are promising treatment options in stroke rehabilitation because they can incorporate MLS supporting motivating task-oriented practice.
