Effects of robot-assisted gait training alongside conventional therapy on the development of walking in children with cerebral palsy.

Journal of pediatric rehabilitation medicine
PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) alongside conventional therapy on the standing and walking abilities of children with cerebral palsy (CP).

The effectiveness of a novel cable-driven gait trainer (Robowalk) combined with conventional physiotherapy compared to conventional physiotherapy alone following stroke: a randomised controlled trial.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
There is increasing interest in gait training devices to improve walking ability in people following stroke. This randomised controlled trial aimed to compare the effectiveness of the Robowalk, a novel cable-driven gait trainer combined with conventi...

Effectiveness of over-ground robotic locomotor training in improving walking performance, cardiovascular demands, secondary complications and user-satisfaction in individuals with spinal cord injuries: A systematic review.

Journal of rehabilitation medicine
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of over-ground robotic locomotor training in individuals with spinal cord injuries with regard to walking performance, cardiovascular demands, secondary health complications and user-satisfaction.

Robot-Aided Upper-limb Proprioceptive Training in Three-Dimensional Space.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Proprioception, the ability to sense body position and limb movements in space without visual feedback, is one of the key factors in controlling body movements and performing activities of daily living. However, this capability might be affected afte...

Towards Data-Driven Autonomous Robot-Assisted Physical Rehabilitation Therapy.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Task-oriented therapy consists of three stages: demonstration, observation and assistance. While demonstration using robots has been extensively studied, the other two stages rarely involve robots. This paper focuses on the transition between observa...

Pedbothome: Robotically-Assisted Ankle Rehabilitation System For Children With Cerebral Palsy.

IEEE ... International Conference on Rehabilitation Robotics : [proceedings]
Our research team has developed two versions of an ankle robot for children with cerebral palsy. Both devices provide three degrees of freedom and are connected to an airplane video game. The child uses his/her foot as the controller for the plane an...

The economic cost of robotic rehabilitation for adult stroke patients: a systematic review.

JBI database of systematic reviews and implementation reports
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this review was to examine the economic cost of robotic therapy compared to conventional therapy for adult stroke patients, from the perspective of hospitals.
