Globally, 1 in 4 people over age 25 will have a stroke in their lifetime. As our population ages, more people experience strokes each year, and due to improved acute care, more people survive them. Two-thirds of stroke survivors struggle with using one of their arms and hands, significantly affecting their independence and quality of life.
One of the biggest challenges in post-stroke hand and arm rehabilitation is that even an expert cannot predict how well an individual will recover. Shockingly, despite major advancements in brain science, this knowledge has not yet been integrated into rehabilitation practice. Rehabilitation specialists still rely on subjective assessments of a patient’s visible movement, without utilizing brain-level information. This gap leaves rehabilitation planning blind, making the rehabilitation process inefficient.
Our Brain-Informed clinical solution will assess each patient’s hidden motor recovery potential and communicate it to rehabilitation therapists, enabling individualized, brain-informed rehabilitation.
