Abstract:
Objective:To collect the user feedback on task-oriented upper limb rehabilitation robots from multiple perspec-tives,including stroke patients,caregivers and rehabilitation therapists,and to provide insights for further devel-opment and optimization by analyzing the existing deficiencies.Method:A qualitative research method was used to conduct semi-structured interviews and experience ratings with 15 stroke patients,9 caregivers,and 10 rehabilitation therapists in the Department of Occupational Thera-py of the Rehabilitation Hospital Affiliated to Fujian University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,using purpo-sive sampling based on the user experience honeycomb model.The interview data were analyzed and summa-rized to refine the themes according to Braun & Clarke's thematic analysis method and with the assistance of NVivo 12 software.Result:Six themes and 16 sub-themes were presented,including usefulness(physical function,psychological condition and rehabilitation efficiency),usability(operational difficulty and human-machine interaction),satis-faction(training modules,element design and comfort),findability(information architecture,functional search and task prompts),accessibility(personalization,application environment and social support),and credibility(profes-sionalism,accuracy and safety).The scoring results showed that the score of"accessiblilty"was relatively low at 7.76±1.24,while the average score of the other five topics was above 8,and the scores of"usefulness"and"credibility"of the equipment were significantly higher than those of"accessibility"(P=0.029,P＜0.001).Conclusion:The task-oriented upper limb rehabilitation robot has a good sense of user experience.However,further improvements are needed in the efficiency,comfort and application environment of human-computer in-teraction machine.
