Summary:During recent years, robot-assisted rehabilitation therapies for patients with brain disease have rapidly advanced. However, due to their high cost and lack of evidence of clinical therapeutic effects, applying robot-assisted rehabilitation therapies has been difficult. This study was conducted to help patients understand more about robot-assisted rehabilitation therapies and to suggest various clinical applications. Existing robot therapies are expensive due to the cost needed for initial development. In addition, only clinical trial results of small sample sizes have been published. Therefore, attempts to improve technologies should be encouraged and ongoing research about their therapeutic effects should be performed. These attempts would help to overcome the disadvantages of previous conventional rehabilitation techniques and to optimize rehabilitation therapies. Technology development, active clinical research, and investments should be encouraged for robot-assisted rehabilitation for the future. KCI Citation Count: 3
