OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of walking function recovery in patients in the early recovery period of ischemic stroke (IS) using an exoskeleton for the lower extremities and an active-passive pedal exercise bike.
BACKGROUND: While Walkbot-assisted locomotor training (WLT) provided ample evidence on balance and gait improvements, the therapeutic effects on cardiopulmonary and psychological elements as well as fall confidence are unknown in stroke survivors.
