Development and Evaluation of a Novel Upper-Limb Rehabilitation Device Integrating Piano Playing for Enhanced Motor Recovery

This study developed and evaluated a novel upper-limb rehabilitation device that integrates piano playing into task-oriented occupational therapy, addressing the limitations of traditional continuous passive motion (CPM) training in patient engagement and functional recovery. The system features a b...
