Effect of robotic-assisted ankle training on gait in stroke participants: A case series study
DISCUSSION: Robot-assisted training that provided assisted movement, biofeedback, and proprioceptive stimulation reduced ankle impairment and improved kinematic and spatiotemporal gait parameters, suggesting that impairment-oriented therapy applied to the paretic ankle may provide a valuable adjunct to locomotor therapies in persons with chronic gait disorders due to stroke.PMID:34424126 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2021.1964658
