About
Dr. S. van Kaick is a leading researcher in neurorehabilitation, with a primary focus on developing and validating robotic assessment tools for stroke recovery. Her most cited work, "Reo assessment to guide the ReoGo Therapy: Reliability and validity of novel robotic scores" (2009, 10 citations), established a foundational framework for using the ReoGo Therapy™ system to quantitatively diagnose motor impairments and guide personalized rehabilitation. This contribution addresses a critical gap in the field: the need for objective, reliable metrics to replace subjective clinical evaluations. By demonstrating the reliability and validity of novel robotic scores, van Kaick’s research enables clinicians to track patient progress with greater precision and tailor therapy accordingly. Her work has directly influenced the integration of robotics into standard stroke rehabilitation protocols, offering hope for more effective recovery. With a career dedicated to bridging engineering and clinical practice, van Kaick’s studies remain essential reading for researchers and students exploring robot-assisted therapy, assessment methodology, and evidence-based neurorehabilitation.
