Rehabilitation Robots for Neurorehabilitation in High-, Low-, and Middle-Income Countries: Current Practice, Barriers, and Future Directions (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780323919319)

Rehabilitation Robots for Neurorehabilitation in High, Low, and Middle Income Countries: Current Practice, Barriers, and Future Directions describes the state-of-art research of stroke rehabilitation using robot systems in selected High Income Countries (HICs) and Low and Middle Income Countries (LMICs), along with potential solutions that enable these technologies to be available to clinicians worldwide, regardless of country and economic status. The book brings together engineers and clinicians, offers insights into healthcare disparities, and highlights potential solutions to facilitate the availability and accessibility of more robot systems to stroke survivors and their clinicians worldwide, regardless of country and economic status.In addition, the book provides examples on how robotic technology is used to bridge rehabilitation gaps in LMICs and describes potential strategies for increasing the expansion of robot-assisted stroke rehabilitation across more LMICs.
