Stroke is a leading cause of disability in healthy adults. This project uses clinician modified off- the-shelf video gaming to provide targeted upper extremity repetitive practice following the ENGAGE protocol, “Enhanced Neurorehabilitation: Guided Activity-based Gaming Exercise”. ENGAGE uses a game selection algorithm providing focused, graded activity-based repetitive practice that is highly individualized and directed. See “Framework for Clinical Decision Making” for more details on this ENGAGE protocol.
