RESUMEN
This paper presents the results of a preliminary study with one cerebral palsy child using the ReHaptic Handle, a novel robotic device for the pediatric rehabilitation of upper limb function. The device has two degrees-of-freedom to train pinching, forearm supination/pronation and wrist flexion/extension movements. Interactive computer games have been implemented to increase subjects' participation and engagement, thus promoting motor recovery. Pinching, with the index finger and thumb, forearm supination/pronation as well as wrist flexion/extension were trained two or three times a week for 15 minutes each. An increase in forearm supination/pronation movement precision and smoothness was observed with the subject, as well as a reduction in the movement duration.
