Effects of robot-assisted gait training in chronic stroke patients treated by botulinum toxin-a: A pivotal study.
Physiotherapy research international : the journal for researchers and clinicians in physical therapy
May 28, 2018
OBJECTIVE: To investigate combined effects of robot-assisted training (RAT) and physical therapy versus physical therapy only on balance and gait function of chronic stroke patients after botulinum toxin-A (BoNT-A) treatment.
Model-based and Model-free Machine Learning Techniques for Diagnostic Prediction and Classification of Clinical Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease.
Scientific reports
May 8, 2018
In this study, we apply a multidisciplinary approach to investigate falls in PD patients using clinical, demographic and neuroimaging data from two independent initiatives (University of Michigan and Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center). Using machine l...
Feasibility of robot-based perturbed-balance training during treadmill walking in a high-functioning chronic stroke subject: a case-control study.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Apr 11, 2018
BACKGROUND: For stroke survivors, balance deficits that persist after the completion of the rehabilitation process lead to a significant risk of falls. We have recently developed a balance-assessment robot (BAR-TM) that enables assessment of balancin...
Reactive balance control in older adults with diabetes.
Gait & posture
Dec 30, 2017
Diabetes mellitus is a major health problem for older adults worldwide and could be associated with impaired ability to recover balance after postural disturbances. This study compared reactive balance control in three groups of adults, young (YA), h...
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...
Robotic finger perturbation training improves finger postural steadiness and hand dexterity.
Journal of electromyography and kinesiology : official journal of the International Society of Electrophysiological Kinesiology
Nov 22, 2017
The purpose of the study was to understand the effect of robotic finger perturbation training on steadiness in finger posture and hand dexterity in healthy young adults. A mobile robotic finger training system was designed to have the functions of hi...
A robotic system for delivering novel real-time, movement dependent perturbations.
Gait & posture
Sep 1, 2017
Perturbations are often used to study movement control and balance, especially in the context of falling. Most often, discrete perturbations defined prior to the experiment are used to mimic external disturbances to balance. However, the largest prop...
Robot-supported assessment of balance in standing and walking.
Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
Aug 14, 2017
Clinically useful and efficient assessment of balance during standing and walking is especially challenging in patients with neurological disorders. However, rehabilitation robots could facilitate assessment procedures and improve their clinical valu...
Morphological self stabilization of locomotion gaits: illustration on a few examples from bio-inspired locomotion.
Bioinspiration & biomimetics
Jun 20, 2017
To a large extent, robotics locomotion can be viewed as cyclic motions, named gaits. Due to the high complexity of the locomotion dynamics, to find the control laws that ensure an expected gait and its stability with respect to external perturbations...
Automatic Assessment of a Rollator-User's Condition During Rehabilitation Using the i-Walker Platform.
IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Apr 25, 2017
Patient condition during rehabilitation has been traditionally assessed using clinical scales. These scales typically require the patient and/or the clinician to rate a number of condition-related items to obtain a final score. This is a time-consumi...
