Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to evaluate the effect of robotic rehabilitation through training on a robot-assisted orthostatic board and neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) on functionality in post-stroke patients. In this randomized controlled trial the patients will be allocated to a control group (which will receive conventional physiotherapy) or or to intervention group (which will receive conventional physiotherapy and robotic rehabilitation). Interventions will occur every day in the hospital phase and three times/week after discharge, totaling 18 sessions.The groups will be evaluated prior to any physiotherapy intervention, in the 10h session and at the end of six weeks of treatment (or 18 sessions).The following outcomes will be measured: functionality, peripheral muscle strength, muscle architecture and echogenicity, spasticity, cardiorespiratory repercussions, mobility, disability and dependence, quality of life and time of hospital stay.
