ABSTRACT
The common problems faced by post-stroke patients are the lack of facility and time for exercise in rehabilitation. This research aims to design upper extremity exercise portable equipment. Basic theory of this product's design is the Active Range of Motion. The design of upper extremity exercise portable equipment (P-RAT) using Nigel Cross's Rational Method. As the result of design, we obtained the best alternative solution for upper extremity exercise portable equipment with 43 cm of length, 11 cm of width and cm of height equipped with rail extensions for 10 cm, 20 cm, and 30 cm extra length, as well as the capability of elevation setting of the rails at 0°, 10°, 20°, and 30°.
