Effect of combined home-based, overground robotic-assisted gait training and usual physiotherapy on clinical functional outcomes in people with chronic stroke: A randomized controlled trial.
Clinical rehabilitation
Dec 27, 2020
OBJECTIVES: To assess the effect of a home-based over-ground robotic-assisted gait training program using the AlterG Bionic Leg orthosis on clinical functional outcomes in people with chronic stroke.
Electromechanical-assisted training for walking after stroke.
The Cochrane database of systematic reviews
Oct 22, 2020
BACKGROUND: Electromechanical- and robot-assisted gait-training devices are used in rehabilitation and might help to improve walking after stroke. This is an update of a Cochrane Review first published in 2007 and previously updated in 2017.
Lightweight Highly Tunable Jamming-Based Composites.
Soft robotics
Apr 15, 2020
Tunable-impedance mechanisms can improve the adaptivity, robustness, and efficiency of a vast array of engineering systems and soft robots. In this study, we introduce a tunable-stiffness mechanism called a "sandwich jamming structure," which fuses t...
Dynamic Modeling and Simulation of a Body Weight Support System.
Journal of healthcare engineering
Feb 12, 2020
This paper proposes a body weight support (BWS) system with a series elastic actuator (SEA) to facilitate walking assistance and motor relearning during gait rehabilitation. This system comprises the following: a mobile platform that ensures movement...
GEARing smart environments for pediatric motor rehabilitation.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Feb 10, 2020
BACKGROUND: There is a lack of early (infant) mobility rehabilitation approaches that incorporate natural and complex environments and have the potential to concurrently advance motor, cognitive, and social development. The Grounded Early Adaptive Re...
Robotic orthoses for gait rehabilitation: An overview of mechanical design and control strategies.
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers. Part H, Journal of engineering in medicine
Jan 9, 2020
The application of robotic devices in providing physiotherapies to post-stroke patients and people suffering from incomplete spinal cord injuries is rapidly expanding. It is crucial to provide valid rehabilitation for people who are experiencing abno...
Accurate Ambulatory Gait Analysis in Walking and Running Using Machine Learning Models.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Dec 10, 2019
Wearable sensors have been proposed as alternatives to traditional laboratory equipment for low-cost and portable real-time gait analysis in unconstrained environments. However, the moderate accuracy of these systems currently limits their widespread...
Clinical non-superiority of technology-assisted gait training with body weight support in patients with subacute stroke: A meta-analysis.
Annals of physical and rehabilitation medicine
Oct 30, 2019
BACKGROUND: Technology-assisted gait training (TAGT) with body weight support (BWS) has been designed to provide high numbers of repetitions during stepping practice, but its benefits have been inconclusive.
Simplifying models and estimating grasp performance for comparing dynamic hand orthosis concepts.
PloS one
Jul 25, 2019
While designing a dynamic hand orthosis to assist during activities of daily living, the designer has to know whether a concept will have sufficient grasp performance to support these activities. This is often estimated by measuring the interaction f...
A Battery-Powered Ankle Exoskeleton Improves Gait Mechanics in a Feasibility Study of Individuals with Cerebral Palsy.
Annals of biomedical engineering
Mar 1, 2019
Neuromuscular impairment associated with cerebral palsy (CP) often leads to life-long walking deficits. Our goal was to evaluate the ability of a novel untethered wearable ankle exoskeleton to reduce the severity of gait pathology from CP. In this cl...
