Rehabilitation robotics is increasingly used because it enables the patients to practice a wide array of movements. Dynamic balance training is essential for gait rehabilitation and robotised devices enhance repeatability, objectivity and precision of such training combined with monitoring and recording of kinematic and kinetic data. The aim of the study is to explore the effect of robot-assisted gait training on dynamic balance, symmetry and take-off in patients after stroke. The investigators will conduct a randomised intervention study where one group will receive visual feedback on gait status and the other group will receive kinetically-assisted training using a robotised device in addition to the visual feedback.

Other | Changes in kinesiological characteristics of gait | Assessed using the BART device | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Primary | Change in postural stability during walking | Assessed using the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) scale. The scale scores range from 0 to 30, with higher scores indicating less impairment. | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Secondary | Change in functional ambulation category | Assessed using the Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) scale. The FAC is a 6-point scale (0-5), with higher category indicating better walking ability. | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Secondary | Change in functional independence | Assessed using the Motor subscale of the Functional Independence Measure (FIM). FIM Motor subscale scores range from 13 to 91, with higher scores indicating better functional independence. | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Secondary | Change in fall-risk related mobility | Assessed using the Timed Up and Go (TUG) test. Longer TUG times indicate worse mobility (and thus higher fall risk). | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Secondary | Change in ability to change directions while stepping | Assessed using the Four Square Step Test (FSST). The FSST is timed, with longer times indicating worse ability. | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Secondary | Change in walking speed over a short distance | Assessed using the 10 Meter Walk Test (10MWT) | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme | |
Secondary | Change in walking speed over a long distance | Assessed using the 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT) | Assessment before and after the 3-week training programme |
