Stroke recovery with medical robotics
An engineering tool for stroke, spinal cord, Parkinson, ALS and other neuronal impairments therapy.
Description
The objective of this course is to provide an insight of human movement from a neuromuscular perspective. Basically, it provides an integral overview of how motor planning, control and execution is performed. Furthermore, the main motor neuronal impairments are reviewed and a neuro rehabilitation perspective using biomedical robotics as the main approach is analyzed from a clinical, engineering and market perspective. Current top research, clinical interventions and market products are presented along the course.
· Knowing a medical vision and engineering il of as planning, control and execution of human movement, coordinated by the central nervous system occurs.
· Know what are the main conditions that affect the coordination of the motor system.
· Learn the principles of research topics in rehabilitation engineering fields, including stroke, spinal cord injury, brain-computer interfaces, speech impairments, Parkinson's , Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis .
· Learn the latest engineering approaches to these problems.
Professionals who complete the program will be able to ...
· Have an understanding of how the planning, control and motor execution of the human body works in the central nervous system
· Learn what are the current clinical and research techniques that exist in rehabilitation engineering for different conditions of the central nervous system.
· To have an approach with researchers, highly experienced professionals and leading companies in the market at a national and international level that can provide an interesting vision of these issues.
