Summary

After partial spinal cord injury, gait deficits may be present and often remain even after intensive rehabilitation. New robotic technologies have recently emerged to help augment the extent of rehabilitation. However, these are complex tools to integrate into clinical practice and little is known about the potential factors that may influence the uptake of a locomotor program using this technology by clinicians. The goal of this project is to bring together researchers, administrators, clinicians and patients to define and implement an overground robotized gait training program in clinic. We will also investigate the added value of leg and trunk muscle stimulation combined with robotic walking training, to see if it could enhance recovery.
