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 aim of this study is to explore if HAL training when combined with conventional training in the subacute stage after stroke may accelerate the recovery of independence in walking when compared to conventional training only and if recovery is related to stroke lateralization?

Conditions

  • Stroke
  • Ambulation Difficulty
  • Hemiparesis

Interventions

DEVICE

Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL)

Intensive gait training with Hybrid Assistive Limb (HAL) is performed, 1 session/day, 4 days/week during 4 weeks. Time for each session is individualised but does not exceed 60 minutes/session (effective walking time with HAL).

OTHER

Conventional gait training

The conventional gait training is performed according to current best evidence based practice and may include over ground walking with assistance and/or assistant devices as well as the use of a treadmill and body weight support and training of gait function in activities of daily living.
