OBJECTIVE: The objective of the article is to analyze the effects of the end-effector technology for gait rehabilitation on acute, subacute, and chronic stroke in order to verify the efficacy of the treatment in older people, based on evidence from r...
BACKGROUND: Quantitative gait analysis produces a vast amount of data, which can be difficult to analyze. Automated gait classification based on machine learning techniques bear the potential to support clinicians in comprehending these complex data....
The stance and swing phases of the gait cycle are defined by foot strike (FS) and foot off (FO). Accurate determination of these events is thus an essential component of 3D motion recordings processing. Several methods have been developed for the aut...
PURPOSE: Early intervention is effective for developing motor ability and preventing contractures and deformities in patients with cerebral palsy (CP). Gait training using the newly developed Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) shows promise as an interventi...
Background and Purpose- The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of gait training with a newly developed wearable hip-assist robot on locomotor function and efficiency in patients with chronic stroke. Methods- Twenty-eight patients wi...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate retrospectively the effect of robotic rehabilitation in a large group of children with motor impairment; an additional goal was to identify the effects in children with cerebral palsy (CP) and acquired brain injury (ABI) and wi...
: The Gait Exercise Assist Robot (GEAR) has been developed to support gait training for stroke patients. The GEAR can assist paretic lower limb swing and stance stability, which make it possible to practice walking without excessive compensation move...
Anklebot therapy has proven to be effective in improving hemiparetic gait. However, neither ankle torque steadiness nor the relationship between changes in force control and functional tasks after therapy with Anklebot were described. To assess whet...
