Robot-assisted Gait Training Using Welwalk in Hemiparetic Stroke Patients: An Effectiveness Study with Matched Control.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
OBJECTIVE: Although studies on the efficacy of the rehabilitation robot are increasing, there are few reports using the robot for gait training in the actual clinical setting. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of gait training using W...

A comparison of the effects and usability of two exoskeletal robots with and without robotic actuation for upper extremity rehabilitation among patients with stroke: a single-blinded randomised controlled pilot study.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robotic rehabilitation of stroke survivors with upper extremity dysfunction may yield different outcomes depending on the robot type. Considering that excessive dependence on assistive force by robotic actuators may interfere with the pat...

Wearable Biofeedback Improves Human-Robot Compliance during Ankle-Foot Exoskeleton-Assisted Gait Training: A Pre-Post Controlled Study in Healthy Participants.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The adjunctive use of biofeedback systems with exoskeletons may accelerate post-stroke gait rehabilitation. Wearable patient-oriented human-robot interaction-based biofeedback is proposed to improve patient-exoskeleton compliance regarding the intera...

Effects of walking distance over robot-assisted training on walking ability in chronic stroke patients.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
An understanding of the dose-response during training is important to identify the rehabilitation programs to obtain the improvement in chronic stroke patients. The purpose of this study was to determine whether distance-dose (distance walked across ...

Characterization and wearability evaluation of a fully portable wrist exoskeleton for unsupervised training after stroke.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Chronic hand and wrist impairment are frequently present following stroke and severely limit independence in everyday life. The wrist orientates and stabilizes the hand before and during grasping, and is therefore of critical importance i...

Kinematic parameters obtained with the ArmeoSpring for upper-limb assessment after stroke: a reliability and learning effect study for guiding parameter use.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: After stroke, kinematic measures obtained with non-robotic and robotic devices are highly recommended to precisely quantify the sensorimotor impairments of the upper-extremity and select the most relevant therapeutic strategies. Although ...

Predicting clinically significant motor function improvement after contemporary task-oriented interventions using machine learning approaches.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Accurate prediction of motor recovery after stroke is critical for treatment decisions and planning. Machine learning has been proposed to be a promising technique for outcome prediction because of its high accuracy and ability to process...

Development and Validation of Machine Learning-Based Prediction for Dependence in the Activities of Daily Living after Stroke Inpatient Rehabilitation: A Decision-Tree Analysis.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Accurate prediction using simple and changeable variables is clinically meaningful because some known-predictors, such as stroke severity and patients age cannot be modified with rehabilitative treatment. There are limited cli...

Novel lateral transfer assist robot decreases the difficulty of transfer in post-stroke hemiparesis patients: a pilot study.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to clarify whether the novel lateral transfer assist robot facilitates easier transfers compared with a wheelchair in post-stroke hemiparesis patients.
