In the field of rehabilitation exoskeletons, addressing the needs of users and healthcare professionals is essential for the development of effective medical technologies. This study presents a user-centered evaluation of the ARTH-aid ExoGlove, a proposed rehabilitation device for muscle atrophy caused by rheumatoid arthritis. This study assesses usability and user experience through therapist and patient feedback, focusing on ergonomic and functional aspects. Ensuring compliance with usability and adaptability criteria is crucial before implementation to enhance effectiveness in clinical settings. While this study includes user feedback, further technical validation and refinement of the system are needed. The findings provide insights into patients’ perceptions of usability and impact on mobility, as well as therapists’ perspectives on its potential integration into rehabilitation protocols. These results highlight the importance of iterative validation and reinforce the role of rehabilitation technologies in complementing traditional therapeutic approaches and advancing patient-centered innovation in biomedical design.
