Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The main study parameters are outcomes related to (functional) task performance and movement execution. To examine the direct influence of the grasp support system on (functional) performance of the most-affected arm and hand during the different proposed conditions, the following main study parameters will be measured: • Qualitative observations of functional task performance and movement execution (e.g. speed of movement, precision, fluidity, compensatory movements) • Quantitative parameters of functional task performance and movement execution (e.g. performance time, kinematics of hand and arm joints, movement path, velocity (profile), acceleration and jerk)
Secondary outcome
To explore user acceptance of the grasp support system and to examine the direct effect of the grasp support system on changes in hand strength and movement execution, the following parameters will be registered during the measurements: • System Usability Scale (SUS) • Semi-structured interview about user’s experience • Action Research Arm Test (ARAT) • Maximal pinch force (Jamar pinch Gauge dynamometer)
Study design
Patients will visit the lab once.
Movement execution will be researched and analyzed with a 3D motion analysis system (VICON) and afterwards with a custom written matlab file.
User acceptance will be measured with the System Usability scale and semi-structured interviews
Hand strength will be measured with a dynanometer
