Do post-stroke patients benefit from robotic verticalization? A pilot-study focusing on a novel neurophysiological approach.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
BACKGROUND: Tilt-table equipped with the dynamic foot-support (ERIGO) and the functional electric stimulation could be a safe and suitable device for stabilization of vital signs, increasing patient's motivation for further recovery, decreasing the d...

Improved walking ability with wearable robot-assisted training in patients suffering chronic stroke.

Bio-medical materials and engineering
Wearable robotic devices provide safe and intensive rehabilitation, enabling repeated motions for motor function recovery in stroke patients. The aim of this small case series was to demonstrate the training effects of a three-week robotic leg orthos...

Improving Quality of Life and Depression After Stroke Through Telerehabilitation.

The American journal of occupational therapy : official publication of the American Occupational Therapy Association
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of home-based robot-assisted rehabilitation coupled with a home exercise program compared with a home exercise program alone on depression and quality of life in people after stroke.

Caregiver and social assistant robot for rehabilitation and coaching for the elderly.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Socially assistive robotics (SAR) has been a major field of investigation during the last decade and, as it develops, the groups the technology can be applied to and all ways in which these can be assisted are rapidly increasing.

Do all sub acute stroke patients benefit from robot-assisted therapy? A retrospective study.

Restorative neurology and neuroscience
PURPOSE: Upper limb robot-assisted rehabilitation is a highly intensive therapy, mainly recommended after stroke. Whether robotic therapy is suitable for subacute patients with severe impairments including cognitive disorders is unknown. This retrosp...
