Prototype development of bilateral arm mirror-like-robotic rehabilitation device for acute stroke patients.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
During the early six months after the onset of a stroke, patients usually remain disabled with limbs weakness and need intensive rehabilitation. An increased number of stroke patients is countered with a reduced number of physical therapists. The dev...

Computer Vision Based on a Modular Neural Network for Automatic Assessment of Physical Therapy Rehabilitation Activities.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Physical rehabilitation techniques during the treatment of clinical pathology are one of the most challenging areas for the medical structure, patients, and families. In large and continental countries, remote monitoring of this treatment is essentia...

Exercise with a wearable hip-assist robot improved physical function and walking efficiency in older adults.

Scientific reports
Wearable assistive robotics has emerged as a promising technology to supplement or replace motor functions and to retrain people recovering from an injury or living with reduced mobility. We developed delayed output feedback control for a wearable hi...

The Application of Artificial Intelligence in Digital Physical Activity and Falls Prevention Interventions for Older Adults.

Journal of aging and physical activity
This article discusses the practical applications of artificial intelligence in digital physical activity and falls prevention interventions for older adults. It notes the range of technologies that can be used to collect digital datasets on older ad...

Patients' physiological reactions to competitive rehabilitation therapies assisted by robotic devices.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: The aging of the population and the progressive increase in life expectancy in developed countries is leading to a high incidence of cerebrovascular diseases. Several studies have demonstrated that robot-assisted rehabilitation therapies ...

Simultaneous assessment and training of an upper-limb amputee using incremental machine-learning-based myocontrol: a single-case experimental design.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Machine-learning-based myocontrol of prosthetic devices suffers from a high rate of abandonment due to dissatisfaction with the training procedure and with the reliability of day-to-day control. Incremental myocontrol is a promising appro...

Age-specific biomechanical challenges and engagement in dynamic balance training with robotic or virtual real-time visual feedback.

Journal of biomechanics
Challenging balance training that targets age-related neuromuscular and motor coordination deficits is needed for effective fall prevention therapy. Goal-directed training can provide intrinsically motivating balance activities but may not equally ch...

Effects of robot-assisted gait training on cardiopulmonary function and lower extremity strength in individuals with spinal cord injury: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

The journal of spinal cord medicine
CONTEXT: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) has been increasingly adopted in many rehabilitation facilities for walking function and activity in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI). However, the effectiveness of RAGT on lower extremity strengt...

Effect of gait distance during robot training on walking independence after acute brain injury.

Assistive technology : the official journal of RESNA
This study aimed to determine whether the distance of gait training using a hybrid assistive limb (HAL) is related to the improvement of walking independence in patients with acute brain injury. This was an exploratory, observational study. Thirty pa...
