In recent years, the potential of robots in the treatment of persons with motor disabilities has raised considerable interest. These devices may interact with patients by assisting or perturbing their movements, may monitor their performance and even quantify their impairment. Clinical trials involving stroke survivors clearly demonstrated that robot-therapy results in improved motor control. More recently, robot-therapy has been applied to other pathologies. A pilot study carried out by the proponents suggested that Multiple Sclerosis (MS) subjects with predominantly cerebellar symptoms may indeed benefit from robot-therapy. MS subjects with different symptoms may benefit from robot therapy as well, but the variety of symptoms and degrees of impairment that is typical of MS suggests that robots may fully show their potential if therapy is tailored on the individual subjects.
