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...

Body weight support during robot-assisted walking: influence on the trunk and pelvis kinematics.

NeuroRehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Efficacy studies concerning robot assisted gait rehabilitation showed limited clinical benefits. A changed kinematic pattern might be responsible for this. Little is known about the kinematics of the trunk and pelvis during robot assisted...

Robotic gait training improves motor skills and quality of life in hereditary spastic paraplegia.

NeuroRehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Gait impairment, balance problems and falls have a negative impact on independence in ADL and quality of life of patients affected by Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP). Since no pharmacological options are available, treatments rely mos...
