    Aim: Approximately two-thirds of stroke patients have upper extremity involvement after the disease. Traditional and innovative rehabilitation programs are needed to restore of the upper extremity motor movements. This clinical trial aims to investigate and compare treatment effects robotic rehabilitation (RR) and action observation therapy (AOT) on upper-limb motor function, independence and quality of life in subacute stroke. Method: The estimated sample of the study is 30 subacute stroke patients. Participants will be randomized into two groups (RR and AOT). All participants will receive conventional treatment for 60x3x8 minutes/day/week. In addition to conventional methods, robotic rehabilitation will be applied to the RR group, and the AOT protocol will be applied to the other group for the same duration. Assessments will be repeated at the baseline, end of the 4th and 8th weeks. Conclusion: This paper will be the first study that compares the effects of AOT and RR on upper extremity motor functions on stroke. In addition, this study will be a reference source for systematic review or metaanalysis studies that investigate the effectiveness of AOT.

    Background Trunk stabilization, which is a factor that directly afects the performance of afected upper-limb movements in stroke patients, is of critical importance in the performance of selective motor control. Aims This study aimed to investigate the efects on upper-limb motor function of the addition of robotic rehabilitation (RR) and conventional rehabilitation (CR) to intensive trunk rehabilitation (ITR). Methods A total of 41 subacute stroke patients were randomly allocated to two groups: RR and CR. Both groups received the same ITR procedure. Following ITR, a robot-assisted rehabilitation program of 60 min, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks, was applied to the RR group, and an individualized upper-limb rehabilitation to the CR group. Assessments were made at baseline and after 6 weeks using the Trunk Impairment Scale (TIS), Fugl-Meyer Upper Extremity Motor Evaluation Scale (FMA-UE), and Wolf Motor Function Test (WMFT). Results Improvements were obtained in the TIS, FMA-UE, and WMFT scores for both groups (p<0.001), with no superiority detected between the groups (p>0.05). The RR group scores were relatively high, but not to a statistically signifcant. Conclusions When added to intensive trunk rehabilitation, the robot-assisted systems, which are recommended as a standalone therapy method, produced similar results to conventional therapies. This technology can be used as an alternative to conventional methods under appropriate conditions of clinical opportunity, access, time management, and staf limitations. However, when RR is combined with traditional interventions such as intensive trunk rehabilitation, it is essential to investigate if the real efect is due to the robotic rehabilitation or the accumulation of positive efects of excessive movement or force spread associated with trained muscles. Registration This trial was retrospectively registered in the ClinicalTrials.gov with NCT05559385 registration number (25/09/2022).
