A wearable ankle-assisted robot for improving gait function and pattern in stroke patients.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Hemiplegic gait after a stroke can result in a decreased gait speed and asymmetrical gait pattern. Normal gait patterns and speed are typically the ultimate goals of gait function in stroke rehabilitation. The purpose of this study was to...

The effect of lower limb rehabilitation robot on lower limb -motor function in stroke patients: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

Systematic reviews
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, add...

Deep learning-based classification of hemiplegia and diplegia in cerebral palsy using postural control analysis.

Scientific reports
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological condition that affects mobility and motor control, presenting significant challenges for accurate diagnosis, particularly in cases of hemiplegia and diplegia. This study proposes a method of classification utiliz...

Human-in-the-Loop Modeling and Bilateral Skill Transfer Control of Soft Exoskeleton.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Soft exoskeletons (exosuits) are expected to provide a comfortable wearing experience and compliant assistance compared with traditional rigid exoskeleton robots. In this paper, an exosuit with twisted string actuators (TSAs) is developed to provide ...

Application of Isokinetic Dynamometry Data in Predicting Gait Deviation Index Using Machine Learning in Stroke Patients: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
BACKGROUND: Three-dimensional gait analysis, supported by advanced sensor systems, is a crucial component in the rehabilitation assessment of post-stroke hemiplegic patients. However, the sensor data generated from such analyses are often complex and...

Effect of task-oriented training assisted by force feedback hand rehabilitation robot on finger grasping function in stroke patients with hemiplegia: a randomised controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Over 80% of patients with stroke experience finger grasping dysfunction, affecting independence in activities of daily living and quality of life. In routine training, task-oriented training is usually used for functional hand training, w...

A Multistage Hemiplegic Lower-Limb Rehabilitation Robot: Design and Gait Trajectory Planning.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Most lower limb rehabilitation robots are limited to specific training postures to adapt to stroke patients in multiple stages of recovery. In addition, there is a lack of attention to the switching functions of the training side, including left, rig...

Research on an ankle rehabilitation robot for hemiplegic patients after stroke.

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
This paper proposes an ankle rehabilitation robot to assist hemiplegic patients with movement training. The robot consists of two symmetric mechanisms, allowing stroke survivors to execute ankle rehabilitation training based on physiological differen...

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...
