Principle of operation of the Ortez-1 robotic complex for the restoration of locomotor functions of the hands

The principle of operation of the Ortez-1 and what problems it solves
⠀
Let's take a look at the main problems of post-stroke rehabilitation.
1. The existing active motor techniques are of little use for post-stroke patients with severe consequences (30%)
2. The opportunity to rehabilitate severe patients in the first months after a stroke is missed
3. 20% of all new patients remain permanently disabled (2 out of 3 people who have suffered a stroke with severe consequences)
4. There are no effective techniques and equipment applicable to gross paresis and plegia.
⠀
So why do we so boldly declare that the Ortez-1 is a solution for post-stroke rehabilitation?
It's simple!
1. The rehabilitation procedure consists in stimulating the mechanisms of neuroplasticity of the brain, activated by the imagination of movements.
2. The use is most effective 2 months after the onset of a stroke, when the neuroplasticity of the brain allows you to restore motor activity with greater efficiency. At the same time, there are no restrictions on the statute of limitations for stroke.

How does the Brace-1 work?
• The complex provides passive opening and compression of the human hand based on commands from the brain-computer interface
• The patient imagines the movement, the exoskeleton receives the necessary command through the analysis of EEG data and compresses or opens the hand. In this way, the exoskeleton is mentally controlled.
• As a result, the patient receives several types of biological feedback on the performance of the movement (sees and feels the independent performance of the movement), the process of the brain's response to motor activity is launched, which contributes to the restoration of neural networks.
