Summary

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.

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Ambulation Difficulty
  • Hemiparesis

Interventions

DEVICE

Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL)

Intensive gait training with Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) is performed 1 session/day, 3 days/week for 6 weeks and each session will not exceed 60 min of effective walking time with HAL. In addition, each session will include conventional gait training that will not exceed 30 min effective training time.

OTHER

1st control group

Conventional gait training performed 1 session/day, 3 days/week for 6 weeks that will not exceed 1h 30 min effective training time.

OTHER

2nd control group

The 2nd control group will not receive an intervention.
