Embodiment 1

[0484] Various types of feedback are envisioned for use with exemplary embodiments of the invention, such as one or more of the following:

[0485] a) Feedback from patients. Optionally, the patient can provide feedback to the therapist, eg, using verbal or textual annotations. In one example, this feedback is provided during the event. In another example, the patient reviews the activity record and then adds notes. In certain activities supported by exemplary embodiments of the present invention, the patient is asked to manipulate a control when a certain condition (eg, maximum force) is reached. Feedback can also be provided by the patient for planning or progress, not just for individual activities.

[0486] In some embodiments of the invention, patient feedback is processed by apparatus 100 to modify and / or determine current or future activities and / or parameters thereof. For example, if the patient marks a force as maximal, later activities will not exceed that force....

Abstract

The invention relates to a rehabilitation device which guides a patient to perform a motion with a correct spatial trajectory, by the device applying one or more pushing, assisting, reminding, responding and/or resisting forces during a motion(or intent to move)by the patient. The forces are applied by an actuator, for example, a robotic articulated arm or a spherically jointed lever. The applied forces act as a force fields, optionally continuous, which impeded and/or guides a patient. The device can be programmable with various trajectories(paths and/or velocities)and/or forces. The forces at one point in the trajectory can vary responsive to an actual trajectory by the patient and/or responsive to a rehabilitation plan and/or improvement of the patient. The device can learn a motion entered by a physiotherapist and replay it for the patient.
