Soft Robotic Glove with Alpha Band Brain Computer Interface for Post-Stroke Hand Function Rehabilitation
All Author
Abstract:
Loss
of hand dexterity is a major challenge faced by post-stroke patients
who strive to resume their ordinary daily lives. Effective hand function
rehabilitation treatment for such population is therefore necessary. A
soft robotic glove system operated through SSVEP-based BCI has been
reported to be an effective tool for post-stroke hand motor function
recovery. This study further evaluated the application of visual
stimulation in the alpha band for SSVEP-assisted rehabilitation. We
compared the treatment outcome with stimulations within the alpha band
to that outside the band. A total of 20 post-stroke patients with severe
upper limb dysfunction were randomly assigned to alpha band group and
non-alpha band group. The experiment result was assessed with Fugl-Meyer
upper limb Motor Assessment (FMAUE) and alpha EEG oscillation analysis.
The alpha band group showed slightly but notably higher FMA-UE scores (P<0.05) , and significantly increased alpha wave EEG oscillations (P<0.05) . The result demonstrated the usefulness of alpha band SSVEP for post stroke hand function rehabilitation.
