Gait Event Detection for Stroke Patients during Robot-Assisted Gait Training.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Functional electrical stimulation and robot-assisted gait training are techniques which are used in a clinical routine to enhance the rehabilitation process of stroke patients. By combining these technologies, therapy effects could be further improve...

Can robotic gait rehabilitation plus Virtual Reality affect cognitive and behavioural outcomes in patients with chronic stroke? A randomized controlled trial involving three different protocols.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
BACKGROUND: The rehabilitation of cognitive and behavioral abnormalities in individuals with stroke is essential for promoting patient's recovery and autonomy. The aim of our study is to evaluate the effects of robotic neurorehabilitation using Lokom...

A systematic review of machine learning models for predicting outcomes of stroke with structured data.

PloS one
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Machine learning (ML) has attracted much attention with the hope that it could make use of large, routinely collected datasets and deliver accurate personalised prognosis. The aim of this systematic review is to identify and c...

Inpatient stroke rehabilitation: prediction of clinical outcomes using a machine-learning approach.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: In clinical practice, therapists often rely on clinical outcome measures to quantify a patient's impairment and function. Predicting a patient's discharge outcome using baseline clinical information may help clinicians design more targete...

A Case of Neuromuscular Electrical Stimulation for Childhood Stroke Hyperkinesis: A Brief Report.

Developmental neurorehabilitation
AIM: Some conditions within specific populations are so rare rigorous evidence is unavailable. Childhood hyperkinesis is one example, yet presents an opportunity to examine sensation's contribution to motor function.

Effects of gait exercise assist robot (GEAR) on subjects with chronic stroke: A randomized controlled pilot trial.

Journal of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases : the official journal of National Stroke Association
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate whether gait training using the Gait Exercise Assist Robot (GEAR) is more effective for improving gait ability than treadmill gait training in chronic stroke subjects.

Maximal Performance of an Antagonistically Coupled Dielectric Elastomer Actuator System.

Soft robotics
Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have been shown to produce electrically induced strains beyond 500%. The ability to undergo large deformation allows the DEA to store large amounts of elastic energy by electrical actuation; it also allows the DE...

Automatic post-stroke lesion segmentation on MR images using 3D residual convolutional neural network.

NeuroImage. Clinical
In this paper, we demonstrate the feasibility and performance of deep residual neural networks for volumetric segmentation of irreversibly damaged brain tissue lesions on T1-weighted MRI scans for chronic stroke patients. A total of 239 T1-weighted M...

The fourier M2 robotic machine combined with occupational therapy on post-stroke upper limb function and independence-related quality of life: A randomized clinical trial.

Topics in stroke rehabilitation
Most post-stroke patients experience upper limb functionality challenges. Emergent therapies using upper limb-based robot machines present opportunities to resolve the limitations inherent in Occupational therapy such as increased therapist-patient e...

Machine learning provides evidence that stroke risk is not linear: The non-linear Framingham stroke risk score.

PloS one
Current stroke risk assessment tools presume the impact of risk factors is linear and cumulative. However, both novel risk factors and their interplay influencing stroke incidence are difficult to reveal using traditional additive models. The goal of...
