Summary

The objective of this clinical study is to examine the acute kinematics and kinetics of utilizing the Tibion Bionic Leg in a sample of chronic post-stroke patients performing sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transfers across a range of assistance and resistance settings (internal to the device); to compare these metrics to baseline performance without the Bionic Leg; and to determine the Bionic Leg settings that optimize a restorative (equal force distribution) movement state in these patients.

Conditions

DEVICE

Tibion Bionic Leg

The device is a lightweight, wearable, portable, battery-powered, robotic leg orthosis that provides active assistance and resistance to lower limb movement according to the patient's intent to move.
