Injury or damage to one side of the brain commonly leads to hemiplegia or weakness on one half of the body. Individuals with severe weakness of the arm cannot participate in rehabilitation, which can lead to muscle stiffness and complications such as contracture and progressive upper limb deformity.
The mirrored motion Bimanual Arm Trainer (BAT) permits individuals, even those with severe weakness, to move their weak arms via the device. The device can be easily adjusted to the person’s height, arm length, and shoulder width.
Approach of MMW Based on Scientifically-Backed Principles
The design of the BAT (and all future MMW devices) is revolutionary but still is based on several principles found in an extensive clinical literature to be important for therapeutic recovery. These principles are summarized here.
