MyHand 2: An Active Hand Orthosis for Stroke Patients
Start Date
3/6/2020
Completion Date
1/1/2029
Summary
This study is designed to further develop and test the hardware and software components of the MyHand device based on user feedback and results from our pilot study. The goal is to refine the device so that is more effective and easier for stroke patients to use to increase their hand function.
Detailed Description
From previous experimentation with the MyHand device, the investigators have determined that the device can improve the grasping ability of stroke patients. The investigators now aim to make the controls more intuitive and accurate for the users, to enable subjects to grasp a wider array of objects, to make the donning and doffing of the device easier, and to continue to assess the MyHand as it helps subjects in functional tasks.
