About
Paolo Catitti is a leading researcher in the field of robotic neurorehabilitation, with a focus on restoring motor function and sensory feedback in patients recovering from traumatic injuries. His work centers on the development and clinical validation of robotic systems for both assessment and therapy of the upper and lower limbs. Catitti’s major contributions include demonstrating the efficacy of wrist robot-aided orthopedic rehabilitation through a randomized controlled trial, which showed significant improvements in motor recovery. He also pioneered a novel robot-based method to objectively assess wrist rigidity and pain in post-traumatic patients, providing a quantitative tool to differentiate between mechanical and neurological sources of dysfunction. His research extends to lower limb rehabilitation, where he has designed protocols integrating proprioceptive and motor training using the high-performance robotic device hunova. With over 50 citations across his key publications, Catitti’s work is shaping evidence-based practice in robotic rehabilitation. His studies are notable for bridging engineering innovation with rigorous clinical trial design, offering new pathways for personalized, data-driven therapy in orthopedics and neurology.
