Generally, stroke patients are susceptible to left with serious impairment in their hands or feet. If paralytic hands or feet are left without any treatment, their muscles will contract around the joints. In this report, we develop a hydraulic rehabilitation equipment using the bellows for the purpose of preventing finger contractures. Rehabilitation equipment has the mechanism that allows hands and fingers flexion and extension automatically. We carried out a questionnaire survey about developed equipment, and measure the flexion and extension angle about each finger using this equipment. Since the good result was obtained, we report the result of our experiment and questionnaire.
