This project will create an Internet accessible software platform called Java Therapy for use in home- and clinic-based telerehabilitation for individuals with upper extremity impairment due to stroke. The proposed system includes rehabilitation status tests, and therapy games that may be accessed using standard computer interface options. Off the shelf force feedback joysticks may be used to carry out active assisted therapy. A therapy planner module and on line progress reports will provide users and their therapists with quantitative information on therapy outcomes. Future phases of this work will expand the system options and perform clinical trials examining therapy outcomes in relation to improvements in functional performance. PROPOSED COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS: Stroke is the number one cause of physical disability in the US. Close to 600,000 individuals experience a stroke each year and there are over now over 3,000,000 stroke survivors. The system to be developed in this project is based on current therapy practices and will provide a new therapy option for those in all stages of rehabilitation.

该项目将创建一个可通过互联网访问的软件平台，称为Java Therapy，用于中风上肢损伤患者的家庭和诊所远程康复。所提出的系统包括康复状态测试，和治疗游戏，可以使用标准的计算机接口选项访问。现成的力反馈控制杆可用于执行主动辅助治疗。治疗计划模块和在线进度报告将为用户及其治疗师提供有关治疗结果的定量信息。这项工作的未来阶段将扩大系统选项，并进行临床试验，检查与功能性能改善相关的治疗结果。拟议的商业应用：中风是美国身体残疾的头号原因。每年有近60万人经历中风，现在有超过300万中风幸存者。该项目将开发的系统基于当前的治疗实践，并将为处于康复各个阶段的患者提供新的治疗选择。
