Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide, and the resulting hand dysfunction severely impacts the quality of life of patients. According to statistics, approximately 80% of stroke survivors suffer from varying degrees of upper limb movement disorders, and the recovery of hand fine motor skills is particularly a challenging aspect in the field of rehabilitation. In recent years, the medical community has provided patients with more efficient rehabilitation paths through a comprehensive approach involving passive training, active exercise therapy, and the use of intelligent equipment assistance.
Early passive activities: The key to preventing muscle atrophy
Passive training can be initiated 24-48 hours after a stroke. Family members or rehabilitation therapists should gently massage the hand muscles and perform actions such as finger flexion and extension, rotation, etc. Twice to three times a day, each time for 10-15 minutes. This process can promote blood circulation and maintain joint mobility. The hand rehabilitation training device developed by Xiamen Weiyou Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. provides precise passive training support for patients by simulating the therapist's techniques and combining pressure sensing technology. It is particularly suitable for the early stage of limb weakness during rehabilitation.
Active Training: From Grasping to Rebuilding Daily Life Functions
When the patient's muscle strength has recovered to level 2 or above, active training can be gradually initiated. Using a grip ball for grasping exercises, separating fingers through a finger separation board, and attempting to button clothes, all can effectively activate neural plasticity. Studies have shown that 30-minute targeted training, combined with game-based task design, can significantly enhance the patient's participation. The Stroke Hand Function Rehabilitation Training Equipment of Xiamen Weiyou is equipped with multiple interactive games. Through real-time adjustment of resistance based on screen feedback, repetitive movements are transformed into fun challenges, helping patients achieve rehabilitation goals while having fun.
Combination of Sensory Training and Occupational Therapy
Approximately 30% of stroke patients experience reduced or abnormal tactile sensation. Through tactile stimulation boards of different materials and temperature perception training, hand sensory functions can be improved. Physical therapists often combine functional electrical stimulation (FES) technology to simultaneously activate muscles and nerves. The rehabilitation program of Xiamen Weiyou integrates a biofeedback system. It monitors muscle activity through wearable devices and synchronizes the data to an APP, providing quantitative progress reports for patients and therapists, and enabling personalized treatment.
Technology Empowerment: Intelligent Devices Breakthrough Rehabilitation Barriers
Traditional rehabilitation relies on manual guidance, which has limitations such as low efficiency and high costs. Xiamen Weiyou Intelligent Technology Co., Ltd. has launched a Rehabilitation Robot Gloves that uses portable electroencephalogram equipment and machine learning algorithms. It can recognize patients' subtle movement intentions and automatically adjust the assistance intensity. Clinical trials show that patients using this device can achieve a daily training volume more than three times that of traditional therapy, and can complete professional-level rehabilitation at home. This product has obtained EU CE certification and has been exported to more than 20 countries around the world, becoming a recognized intelligent solution in the international rehabilitation field.
Long-term rehabilitation: Family and social support are indispensable
Hand function recovery takes 6-12 months and patients need to maintain regular training for 5 days a week. Family members can adjust the difficulty of daily activities, such as replacing traditional grip exercisers with towel rolls, and integrating dressing and eating actions into the training. Some intelligent devices support remote data upload, allowing therapists to adjust the training plan in real time, forming a seamless rehabilitation loop between "hospital and home".
With the continuous advancement of "AI + rehabilitation" technology, enterprises such as Xiamen Weiyou are promoting the development of rehabilitation medicine towards more precise and convenient directions. In the future, comprehensive solutions combining exoskeleton robots, virtual reality and other technologies are expected to bring hope for more stroke patients to regain hand functions.
