Abstract: The apparatus provides active and passive exercise to the hand and wrist of a patient afflicted with the symptoms of reflex sympathetic dystrophy. The apparatus employs a hand or wrist glove to be worn by the patient's affected hand, the back of which is attached through an arm to a central post and the distal portion encasing the fingers, is attached to a vertical handle, which is rotated about the post, serving as the axis of rotation. A torque sensor is coupled to the motor shaft to measure the degree of patient input from a programmed speed and force rate by sensing the active input of the patient and reducing the motor input to the cycle allowing the patient to “drive” the exercise.
