PURPOSE: This pilot study aimed to investigate the effects of REX exoskeleton rehabilitation robot training on the balance and lower limb function in patients with sub-acute stroke.
BACKGROUND: Robotic devices are known to provide pivotal parameters to assess motor functions in Multiple Sclerosis (MS) as dynamic balance. However, there is still a lack of validation studies comparing innovative technologies with standard solution...
Dementia is characterized by a progressive loss of cognitive abilities, and diagnosing its early stages Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), is difficult since it is a transitory state that is different from total cognitive collapse. Recent clinical rese...
BACKGROUND: Falls and their consequences are a serious public health problem worldwide. Each year, 37.3 million falls requiring medical attention occur. Therefore, the analysis of fall risk is of great importance for prevention. Artificial intelligen...
