Compartive effectiveness of robot-interactive gait training with and without ankle robotic control in patients with brain damage

Abstract Although ankle robotic control has emerged as a critical component of robot-interactive gait  training (RIGT), no study has investigated the neurophysiological and biomechanical effects  on ankle muscle activity and joint angle kinematics in healthy adults and participants with  brain damage, including stroke and cerebral palsy (CP). This study compared the effects of  RIGT, with and without ankle control actuator, on ankle muscle activity and joint angle  kinematics in healthy adults and participants with brain damage. Ten patients (healthy ¼ 4,  left hemiparetic stroke ¼ 3, CP ¼ 3) underwent standardized surface electromyography  (EMG) neurophysiological and kinematics biomechanical tests under the RIGT with and  without ankle control actuator conditions. Outcome measures included the EMG amplitudes  of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius muscle activity, and ankle movement angles  recorded with a two-axis digital inclinometer.

Sensitivity level setting in Walkbot Lower-Limb Robotic Rehabilitation

Did you know we can set sensitivity levels in Walkbot Lower-Limb Robotic Rehabilitation? We have made this feature to ensure patient safety and provide the best possible treatment considering the patient's condition. If we set the sensitivity to a very low level for patient safety, it makes the robot very sensitive and the Walkbot automatically stops with the small spasticity of the patient. On the other hand, we can set a higher sensitivity level if you want to train more actively for muscle strength or more intense training, etc. The high sensitivity level makes the robot less sensitive, so a small convulsion will not automatically stop the training unless the patient or therapist stops it with emergency stop switches.

Correction of Foot Shape & Alignment of Ankle joint

Walkbot Lower-Limb Robotic Rehabilitation has successfully implemented the Ankle joint drive motor for the first time in the world. As a result, Walkbot can help patients correct the foot shape and alignment of ankle joint during the gait training.
