Journal: Systematic reviews
PMID: 40140968

Abstract

BACKGROUND: The assessment and enhancement of lower limb motor function in hemiplegic patients is of paramount importance. The emergence of lower limb rehabilitation robots offers a promising avenue for improving motor function in these patients, addressing the limitations associated with traditional rehabilitation therapies. However, a consensus regarding their clinical effectiveness remains elusive. Consequently, the objective of this study is to systematically review the rehabilitation efficacy of lower limb rehabilitation robots on motor function in post-stroke hemiplegic patients, thereby providing robust clinical evidence to support their promotion and utilization.
