New experimental results in assessing and rehabilitating the upper limb function by means of the grip force tracking method

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to present new experimental results while using a tracking system for the assessment and training of grip force control in patients with neuromuscular diseases. In conjunction with the Jebsen-Taylor hand test the Grip Force Tracking System proved to be a valuable tool to assess hand dexterity and to quantify the hand rehabilitation process in stroke patients.
