Effects of Exoskeleton-Assisted Gait Training on Functional Rehabilitation Outcomes in Patients With Stroke
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of electromechanical exoskeleton-assisted gait training on rehabilitation functional outcomes in patients with stroke undergoing therapy in an in-patient rehabilitation facility.
Inclusion: All patients with acute hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke documented clinically and by neuroimaging; Medically stable from a cardio-respiratory stand point so that they can participate in daily therapies; Depressed patients will be included in the study; Patients able to stand alone; Patients able to provide a written informed consent, from cognitively intact patients (admission Mini Mental Scale Examination [MMSE] greater than or equal to 21).
Exclusion: Aphasic patients unable to communicate; Confused patients; Patients medically unstable; Patients unable to stand alone; Refusal to provide written informed consent.
