Mehrholz 2018 - Electromechanical and robot-assisted arm training for improving activities of daily living, arm function, and arm muscle strength after stroke

“We found that people after stroke who receive electromechanical or robot‐assisted arm training are more likely to show improvement in their activities of daily living, arm function, and muscle strength of the paretic arm, and we rated the quality of evidence as high.”

This updated review shows great promise for the efficacy of using robot-assisted arm training such as Burt®.
