Effect of robot-assisted gait training on motor functions in adolescent and young adult patients with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy: A randomized controlled trial.

NeuroRehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) allows an intensive gait training in patients with cerebral palsy (CP). There are few evidences on the effectiveness of RAGT in adults with CP.

[Robotic recovery of walking function in patients in the early recovery period of stroke].

Zhurnal nevrologii i psikhiatrii imeni S.S. Korsakova
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.

Effects of innovative hip-knee-ankle interlimb coordinated robot training on ambulation, cardiopulmonary function, depression, and fall confidence in acute hemiplegia.

NeuroRehabilitation
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.

Effects of robot-assisted gait training alongside conventional therapy on the development of walking in children with cerebral palsy.

Journal of pediatric rehabilitation medicine
PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) alongside conventional therapy on the standing and walking abilities of children with cerebral palsy (CP).

Analysis and control of biped robot with variable stiffness ankle joints.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BACKGROUND: Biped robot locomotion is an active topic of research, and the walking stability is one of the research objectives.

The effectiveness of a novel cable-driven gait trainer (Robowalk) combined with conventional physiotherapy compared to conventional physiotherapy alone following stroke: a randomised controlled trial.

International journal of rehabilitation research. Internationale Zeitschrift fur Rehabilitationsforschung. Revue internationale de recherches de readaptation
There is increasing interest in gait training devices to improve walking ability in people following stroke. This randomised controlled trial aimed to compare the effectiveness of the Robowalk, a novel cable-driven gait trainer combined with conventi...

Effectiveness of over-ground robotic locomotor training in improving walking performance, cardiovascular demands, secondary complications and user-satisfaction in individuals with spinal cord injuries: A systematic review.

Journal of rehabilitation medicine
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of over-ground robotic locomotor training in individuals with spinal cord injuries with regard to walking performance, cardiovascular demands, secondary health complications and user-satisfaction.

Robotic prosthesis that maintains flexion posture.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The number of lower limb amputations in Japan has recently been increasing. Lower limb amputation is classified based on the amputated part,and its two main types are below-knee (28.4%) and above-knee (58.8%). Especially for patients with above-knee ...

Automatic Inference of Rat's Hindlimb Trajectory to Synchronize with Forelimb Gait Through Phase.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Synchronous forelimb-hindlimb gait pattern is important to facilitate natural walking behavior of an injured rat with total transection. Since our ultimate research goal is to build a rehabilitation robotic system to simulate the natural walking patt...

Design of the Clutched Variable Parallel Elastic Actuator (CVPEA) for Lower Limb Exoskeletons.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
The paper presents a novel clutched variable parallel elastic actuator (CVPEA) mainly consisting of a motor and a flat spiral spring in parallel to actuate the hip of lower limb exoskeletons in sagittal plane. To minimize the power and torque require...
