“…Consequently, after 20 years of investigation on robotic devices, including body weight support systems, efficacy is still uncertain, and most of the robotic use is still confined to research-controlled trial instead of in clinical practice 49. This skepticism has led to put into question the clinical usability of robots in neurorehabilitation: Hidler and Lum50 questioned the possibility that these devices will become commonplace in every hospital and rehabilitation clinic or whether they will become things of the past like so many other promising prototypes. In addition, Iosa et al,15 after having asked “Where are the robots promised by scientific literature able to restore motor functions after stroke?”, noted that despite surgical robots being introduced at around the same time as rehabilitation robots, only the benefit of the formers has been well established 38…”

In this review, we give a brief outline of robot-mediated gait training for stroke patients, as an important emerging field in rehabilitation. Technological innovations are allowing rehabilitation to move toward more integrated processes, with improved efficiency and less long-term impairments. In particular, robot-mediated neurorehabilitation is a rapidly advancing field, which uses robotic systems to define new methods for treating neurological injuries, especially stroke. The use of robots in gait training can enhance rehabilitation, but it needs to be used according to well-defined neuroscientific principles. The field of robot-mediated neurorehabilitation brings challenges to both bioengineering and clinical practice. This article reviews the state of the art (including commercially available systems) and perspectives of robotics in poststroke rehabilitation for walking recovery. A critical revision, including the problems at stake regarding robotic clinical use, is also presented.

“…Note that this approach is also used by industrial robots. However, it must be considered that simple-to-use devices are more likely to be adopted by clinicians than those that have long setup times [135]. One way of enabling flexible and intuitive strategies to create new exercises could be robot programming by demonstration [136].…”

Robot-aided systems to support the physical rehabilitation of individuals with neurological impairment is one of the fields that has been widely developed in the last few decades. However, the adoption of these systems in clinical practice remains limited. In order to better understanding the causes of this limitation, a systematic review of robot-based systems focused on upper extremity rehabilitation is presented in this paper. A systematic search and review of related articles in the literature were conducted. The chosen works were analyzed according to the type of device, the data analysis capability, the therapy method, the human–robot interaction, the safety strategies, and the focus of treatment. As a conclusion, self-adaptation for personalizing the treatments, safeguarding and enhancing of patient–robot interaction towards training essential factors of movement generation into the same paradigm, or the use of lifelike environments in fully-immersive virtual reality for increasing the assimilation of motor gains could be relevant factors to develop more accepted robot-aided systems in clinical practice.

“…Por el contrario, una desventaja fue identificar claramente la eficacia del sistema debido al número de pacientes que participaron del estudio. Suárez Mejías, et al 68 en 2013 diseñaron un robot para neurorehabilitación llamado: "URSUS", que se complementó con actividades de realidad aumentada. Este fue un robot social diseñado especialmente para rehabilitación de miembros superiores de niños con discapacidades motoras como hemiplejia.…”

“…Entender el futuro de la tecnología en mención no es tarea fácil, y para hacerlo se debe responder una serie de preguntas como aseguran Hidler, et al 68 , por ejemplo: ¿Cuál es la meta de un robot?, ¿Cuáles son las barreras de aceptación que una clínica y personal podrían establecer a dispositivos robóticos para rehabilitación?, ¿Cómo deberían ser los nuevos dispositivos, portátiles, o de uso doméstico?…”

RESUMENLas lesiones de miembro superior ocasionan un profundo impacto en la calidad de vida del paciente. Es bien conocido que para la recuperación del paciente, debe permitírsele jugar un papel activo en su proceso de rehabilitación. Por esta razón, las nuevas tecnologías como la robótica, se están implementando para abordar este problema; tal como lo presentan las múltiples investigaciones reportadas en la literatura. En este artículo, se documentó una revisión de la literatura sobre dispositivos y sistemas robóticos para rehabilitación del miembro superior en niños, lo que incluyó algunos que aún se encuentran en fase de desarrollo, con el fin de ofrecer un panorama global sobre los diseños y soluciones que faciliten el avance de nuevos dispositivos. Para facilidad del lector, este documento se distribuyó en marco teórico, metodología, resultados y discusión, proyecciones de la ingeniería de rehabilitación y conclusiones.Palabras clave: Tecnología de asistencia, ingeniería, robótica, terapia, rehabilitación, revisión. ABSTRACTUpper limb injuries cause a profound impact on patient's quality of life. It is well known that for the recovery of the patient, should be allowed to play an active role in their rehabilitation process. For this reason, new technologies such as robotics, are being implemented to address this problem; as presented by the multiple investigations reported in the literature. In this article, the review of devices and robotic systems for rehabilitation of the upper limb in children was documented, including some that are still under development, in order to provide a comprehensive overview of the designs and solutions to facilitate the development of new devices. For convenience of the reader, this document was distributed into theoretical framework, methodology, results and discussion, projections rehabilitation engineering and conclusions.
