Primary outcomePrimary: A Change in the Fugl-Meyer Upper Extremity Assessment Score — 11; 12; 13; 14 units on a scale

Summary

This study will validate a predictive model that uses demographics, functional status, neurophysiology, neuroanatomy, and other potential biomarkers to predict the likelihood of a clinically significant change in impairment at the end of a robot assisted therapy intervention.The study will include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), and an arm exercise program consisting of robot-assisted exercise combined with functional arm exercise called transition to task training (TTT).

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Clinically defined, unilateral, hemiparetic stroke with radiologic exclusion of other possible diagnosis
  • Stroke onset at least 6 months before enrollment
  • Present with Mild/Moderate to Severe arm dysfunction (based on Fugl-Meyer scores of 10 to 45)
  • Be medically stable to participate in the study
  • Be English speaking

Exclusion Criteria

  • Unable to give informed consent
  • Have a serious complicating medical illness that would preclude participation.
  • Contractures or orthopedic problems limiting range of joint motion in the potential study arm
  • Visual loss such that the subject would not be able to see the test patterns on the robot computer monitor
  • Botulinum toxin to study arm within four months of study enrollment or if received during the study period
  • Unable to comply with requirements of the study
  • Participants with a history of a seizure will not be precluded from the study, but will not be enrolled in the TMS portions
  • Participants with electromagnetic exclusions (metal implants in the cranium, implanted electronic devices etc.) will not be precluded from the study but will be excluded from the MRI and TMS portions
  • Have a serious complicating medical illness that would preclude participation
