Effects of Robotic Rehabilitation on Quality of Life, Mood, and Fatigue After Stroke
Effects of Combined Robotic and Conventional Lower Limb Rehabilitation on Quality of Life, Depression, Anxiety, and Fatigue After Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 26 Jan 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Stroke is a major cause of long-term disability and is often associated with reduced quality of life, depression, anxiety, and fatigue. Rehabilitation plays a key role in recovery, and robotic-assisted gait training provides intensive, repetitive, and individualized therapy. However, its effects on psychological outcomes and quality of life are not fully established. This randomized controlled trial will compare conventional rehabilitation combined with robotic-assisted gait training to conventional rehabilitation combined with treadmill training in stroke survivors. Both groups will receive treatment 5 days per week for 6 weeks. Assessments will be conducted at baseline, after 6 weeks of treatment, and at 3 months after treatment. The primary outcome is quality of life. Secondary outcomes include depression, anxiety, and fatigue. The results of this study will provide new evidence on the benefits of robotic rehabilitation for improving both physical and psychological well-being after stroke.
