Comparative efficacy of robot-assisted therapy associated with other different interventions on upper limb rehabilitation after stroke: A protocol for a network meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Post-stroke movement disorders are common, especially upper limb dysfunction, which seriously affects the physical and mental health of stroke patients. With the continuous development of intelligent technology, robot-assisted therapy has become a research hotspot in the upper limb rehabilitation of stroke patients in recent years. Many scholars have also integrated robot-assisted therapy with other interventions to improve rehabilitation outcomes. However, there is a lack of research to determine which auxiliary intervention is the best. Therefore, this protocol aims to guide the development of a network meta-analysis, which helps determine the most suitable auxiliary interventions for robot-assisted therapy.
