Pilot Clinical Study with Severe Chronic Stroke Patients

The American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation published in April 2007 the results of a clinical study using Myomo NeuroRobotics technology with severe chronic stroke patients (1.5-to-10-years post CVA) with upper extremity hemiparesis. (Stein J., Narendran K., McBean J., Krebs K., Hughes, R. Electromyography-Controlled Exoskeletal Upper-Limb-Powered Orthosis for Exercise Training after Stroke. Am. J. Phys. Med. Rehabil. Vol. 86. No. 4. 2007)

Based on these results, some clinical experts have suggested that the Myomo device may serve as a Therapy Gateway for severe chronic patients who are so impaired that they currently are ineligible for other upper extremity stroke treatments.

"The device acts as a facilitator of the innate capability of the human brain to improve function through practice."
