EN Abstract: |
Objective: To investigate the characteristics of walking ability of patients with complete paraplegia by using exoskeleton lower limb robot. Methods: Totally, 30 patients with complete paraplegia were examined using RGO and exoskeleton 6 min walking distance, 10 meters walking time, physiological burden index, Borg fatigue scale score. Results: As compared with RGO, the walking distance of exoskeleton was significantly increased (P<0.05), the 10 meter walking time was significantly shortened (P<0.05), and the physiological consumption index and PRE were decreased. Conclusion: Compared with RGO, the exoskeleton lower limb robot for paraplegic patients can enhance walking endurance, increase walking speed and lower energy consumption, which can be further popularized as a therapeutic walking aid for complete paraplegic patients. |
