Study type | Interventional |
The overall purpose of this project is to establish the added value of training with the Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) exoskeleton system as part of regular rehabilitation intervention programs after stroke. The main specific aims are: (i) to compare potential effects on functioning and disability of gait and mobility training long-term after stroke by comparing A) HAL-training combined with conventional rehabilitation interventions to B) conventional rehabilitation interventions without HAL and to C) no intervention.

Accepts healthy volunteers | No |
Gender | All |
Age group | 18 Years to 70 Years |
Eligibility | Inclusion Criteria: - 1-10 years since stroke onset - Able to walk but not independently, i.e. need of manual support or close supervision due to lower extremity paresis, FAC score 2-3 or FAC 4 combined with gait speed <0.8m/s according to 10 meter walk test, which corresponds to limitations in community ambulation (Bowden et al 2008) - Ability to understand training instructions as well as written and oral study information and to express informed consent or by proxy - Body size compatible with the HAL suit. Exclusion Criteria: - Contracture restricting gait movements at any lower limb joint - Cardiovascular or other somatic condition incompatible with intensive gait training - Severe, contagious infections (e.g. Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) or Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase bacteria). |
