TL;DR: HAL exoskeleton training results in improved over-ground walking and leads to the assumption of a beneficial effect on ambulatory mobility, however, evaluation in larger clinical trials is required.
Journal ArticleDOI
Robot-assisted gait training (Lokomat) improves walking function and activity in people with spinal cord injury: a systematic review.
TL;DR: RAGT improves mobility-related outcomes to a greater degree than conventional OGT for patients with incomplete SCI, particularly during the acute stage, which might enable SCI patients to maintain a healthy lifestyle and increase their level of physical activity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Time and effort required by persons with spinal cord injury to learn to use a powered exoskeleton for assisted walking
TL;DR: Preliminary evidence that persons with neurological weakness due to SCI can learn to walk with little or no assistance and light to somewhat hard perceived exertion using a powered exoskeleton is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exoskeleton and End-Effector Robots for Upper and Lower Limbs Rehabilitation: Narrative Review.
TL;DR: An overview of literature published on exoskeleton devices for upper and lower limb rehabilitation in patients with upper motor neuron syndrome is provided; the available current research evidence is summarized and the new challenges that neurorehabilitation and bioengineering will have to face in the upcoming years are outlined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lower-limb exoskeletons for individuals with chronic spinal cord injury: findings from a feasibility study
TL;DR: The conduct of a controlled trial evaluating the benefits of using exoskeletons that require a lengthy user-commitment to training of individuals with chronic motor complete or incomplete spinal cord injury comes with considerable feasibility challenges.
