Enhancing Motor Function and Quality of Life Combining Advanced Robotics and Biomechatronics in an Adult with Dystonic Spastic Tetraparesis: A Case Report

Leogrande, E., Piccoli, S., Dell’Olio, F., Smania, N., Mazzoleni, S., Gandolfi, M. (2025) Biomimetics

This case report explores the innovative integration of robotic and biomechatronic technologies, including the Motore and Ultra+ devices and neuro-suits, in a 10-session rehabilitation program for a young adult with dystonic spastic tetraparesis. Notable improvements were observed in upper limb motor function, coordination, and quality of life as measured by an increase of 18 pints on the Fugl-Meyer scale and a 25% improvement in the Bartle Index. Range of motion measurements showed consistent improvements…
