Maintaining stable transfemoral amputee gait on level, sloped and simulated uneven conditions in a virtual environment.
Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
Dec 24, 2017
PURPOSE: Describe and quantify how people with transfemoral amputations (TFA) maintain stable gait over a variety of surfaces; including, downhill and uphill, top and bottom-cross-slopes, medial-lateral translations, rolling hills and simulated rocky...
The Association of Vitamin D Status in Lower Extremity Muscle Strains and Core Muscle Injuries at the National Football League Combine.
Arthroscopy : the journal of arthroscopic & related surgery : official publication of the Arthroscopy Association of North America and the International Arthroscopy Association
Dec 21, 2017
PURPOSE: To evaluate the association between serum vitamin D level and the prevalence of lower extremity muscle strains and core muscle injuries in elite level athletes at the National Football League (NFL) combine.
Factors Leading to Improved Gait Function in Patients with Subacute or Chronic Central Nervous System Impairments Who Receive Functional Training with the Robot Suit Hybrid Assistive Limb.
Neurologia medico-chirurgica
Dec 1, 2017
The factors that lead to the improvement of gait function in patients with diseases of the central nervous system (CNS) who use a hybrid assistive limb (HAL) are not yet fully understood. The purpose of the present study was to analyze these factors ...
Forced Use of the Paretic Leg Induced by a Constraint Force Applied to the Nonparetic Leg in Individuals Poststroke During Walking.
Neurorehabilitation and neural repair
Nov 16, 2017
BACKGROUND: Individuals with stroke usually show reduced muscle activities of the paretic leg and asymmetrical gait pattern during walking.
An expert system feedback tool improves the reliability of clinical gait kinematics for older adults with lower limb osteoarthritis.
Gait & posture
Aug 10, 2017
Recently, an expert system was developed to provide feedback to examiners with the aim of improving reliability of marker-based gait analysis. The purpose of the current study was to evaluate the effectiveness of this novel feedback tool in improving...
Iterative Learning Impedance for Lower Limb Rehabilitation Robot.
Journal of healthcare engineering
Aug 1, 2017
This paper discusses the problem of squatting training of stroke patients. The main idea is to correct the patient's training trajectory through an iterative learning control (ILC) method. To obtain better rehabilitation effect, a patient will typica...
Research on Safety and Compliance of a New Lower Limb Rehabilitation Robot.
Journal of healthcare engineering
Jul 26, 2017
The lower limb rehabilitation robot is an application of robotic technology for stroke people with lower limb disabilities. A new applicable and effective sitting/lying lower limb rehabilitation robot (LLR-Ro) is proposed, which has the mechanical li...
Robot-Assisted Training for People With Spinal Cord Injury: A Meta-Analysis.
Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation
Jun 20, 2017
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of robot-assisted training on the recovery of people with spinal cord injury (SCI).
Robotics in Lower-Limb Rehabilitation after Stroke.
Behavioural neurology
Jun 8, 2017
With the increase in the elderly, stroke has become a common disease, often leading to motor dysfunction and even permanent disability. Lower-limb rehabilitation robots can help patients to carry out reasonable and effective training to improve the m...
Physical human-robot interaction of an active pelvis orthosis: toward ergonomic assessment of wearable robots.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Apr 14, 2017
BACKGROUND: In human-centered robotics, exoskeletons are becoming relevant for addressing needs in the healthcare and industrial domains. Owing to their close interaction with the user, the safety and ergonomics of these systems are critical design f...
