Immediate after-effects of robot-assisted gait with pelvic support or pelvic constraint on overground walking in healthy subjects
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation"
DOI: 10.1186/s12984-019-0506-z
Abstract: BackgroundRecovery of walking is a primary rehabilitation goal of most stroke survivors. Control of pelvic movements is one of the essential determinants of gait, yet surprisingly, conventional robot-assisted gait trainers constrain pelvic movements. Novel robot-assisted… read more here.
