Journal ArticleDOI
Multicenter randomized clinical trial evaluating the effectiveness of the Lokomat in subacute stroke.
Joseph Hidler,Diane Nichols,Marlena Pelliccio,Kathy Brady,Donielle D. Campbell,Jennifer H. Kahn,T. George Hornby +6 more
TL;DR: For subacute stroke participants with moderate to severe gait impairments, the diversity of conventional gaitTraining interventions appears to be more effective than robotic-assisted gait training for facilitating returns in walking ability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Observation of Amounts of Movement Practice Provided during Stroke Rehabilitation
Catherine E. Lang,Jillian R. MacDonald,Darcy S. Reisman,Lara A. Boyd,Teresa Jacobson Kimberley,Sheila Schindler-Ivens,T. George Hornby,Sandy A. Ross,Patricial L. Scheets +8 more
TL;DR: The amount of practice provided during poststroke rehabilitation is small compared with animal models, and it is possible that current doses of task-specific practice during rehabilitation are not adequate to drive the neural reorganization needed to promote function poststroke optimally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced Gait-Related Improvements After Therapist- Versus Robotic-Assisted Locomotor Training in Subjects With Chronic Stroke: A Randomized Controlled Study
T. George Hornby,Donielle D. Campbell,Jennifer H. Kahn,Tobey Demott,Jennifer L. Moore,Heidi Roth +5 more
TL;DR: Therapist-assisted LT facilitates greater improvements in walking ability in ambulatory chronic stroke survivors as compared to a similar dosage of robotic-assistedLT.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effectiveness of automated locomotor training in patients with chronic incomplete spinal cord injury: A multicenter trial
Markus Wirz,David H. Zemon,R Rupp,Anke Scheel,Gery Colombo,Volker Dietz,T. George Hornby,T. George Hornby,T. George Hornby +8 more
TL;DR: Intensive locomotor training on a treadmill with the assistance of a DGO resulted in significant improvements in the subjects' gait velocity, endurance, and performance of functional tasks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic Costs and Muscle Activity Patterns During Robotic- and Therapist-Assisted Treadmill Walking in Individuals With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
TL;DR: Differences in metabolic costs and muscle activity patterns between therapist- and robotic-assisted standing and stepping illustrate the importance of minimizing passive guidance and stabilization provided during step training protocols.
