Robot-based neurorehabilitation strategies often ignore cognitive performance during treatment, but this is a need in populations dealing with a wide variety of cognitive and motor impairments, such as the stroke and HIV populations, for which an association between the two have been established. In this study, we concurrently measure cognitive and motor performance on a robotic cognitive-motor task and quantify cognitive-motor interference. We apply this method to a pilot group of healthy, stroke, and HIV-stroke subjects, and we demonstrate the potential of smoothness and correct response rate as metrics to capture motor and cognitive-related dual-task effects.
基于机器人的神经康复策略在治疗过程中常常忽视认知表现，但对于患有各种认知和运动障碍的人群，如中风患者和感染艾滋病毒的人群，这是一项需求，因为两者之间的关联已经得到证实。在本研究中，我们同时在一项机器人认知-运动任务中测量认知和运动表现，并量化认知-运动干扰。我们将此方法应用于一组健康、中风和感染艾滋病毒的中风受试者的试验组，并证明了平滑度和正确反应率作为指标来捕捉与运动和认知相关的双重任务效应的潜力。
