Backgrounds: Exoskeletons development arises with a leading role in neurorehabilitation technologies; however, very few prototypes for upper limbs have been tested, contrasted and duly certified in terms of their effectiveness in clinical environments in order to incorporate into the health system. The purpose of this pilot study was to determine if robotic therapy of Hemiplegic Shoulder Pain (HSP) could lead to functional improvement in terms of diminishing of pain, spasticity, subluxation, the increasing of tone and muscle strength, and the satisfaction degree.
Methods: An experimental study was conducted in 16 patients with painful shoulder post- ischemic stroke in two experimental groups: conventional and robotic therapy.
