Summary

Persons post-stroke suffer from hemiparesis affecting the functional abilities of the controlesional lower limb. Improving walking is therefore a primary rehabilitation goal for such patients. Robotic-Assisted Rehabilitation (RAR, e.g. exoskeletons) and Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) are promising techniques to facilitate the functional recovery after stroke. allowing benefits to be maintained over long term.
