Effect of robotic exoskeleton gait training during acute stroke on functional ambulation.

Journal: NeuroRehabilitation
Published Date: Jan 1, 2021

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Stroke is a leading cause of disability resulting in long-term functional ambulation deficits. Conventional therapy can improve ambulation, but may not be able to provide consistent, high dose repetition of movement, resulting in variable recovery with residual gait deviations.
