Summary

High-tech therapy, an innovative field of neurorehabilitation, has expanded rapidly in recent years. Advances in technology have enabled the use of devices that can assist with movement development from simple movements to more complex tasks.

This research investigates the effectiveness of rehabilitation programmes that complement robot-assisted therapy to help people relearn to walk in post-stroke rehabilitation. This would be measured in two variations, with the patient (in addition to a complex rehabilitation programme of conventional physiotherapy, occupational therapy, hydrotherapy, etc.) receiving either treadmill or no treadmill treatment. In both cases, the therapies will be carried out with advanced technology-based equipment (both treatments are part of the daily routine of the Institute's treatments, and the equipment will be used according to the instructions in the user manual), the C-Mill interactive robot-assisted device will be used for treadmill therapy, and the Andago robot-assisted device for non- treadmill therapy. There is no sharp distinction between the two systems. The inclusion and exclusion criteria are set so patients' conditions meet the indications for both devices, and patients eligible for treatment with one device are included in the other.

In our study, 80 patients will be selected.

  • Gait Disorders, Neurologic

Interventions

DEVICE

Treadmill training

Therapy with treadmill-based advanced technology device.

DEVICE

Overground training

Therapy using an advanced technological device enables exercise on the ground.

DEVICE

DIERS

The examination starts and ends with the DIERS motion analysis system, a light-optical scanning method based on VRS (Video Raster Stereography) and a sensor-equipped treadmill that allows the measurement of several parameters of gait and balancing ability.

OTHER

Traditional physiotherapy assessments

Traditional physiotherapy assessment methods (Timed Up and Go, Berg Balance Test, 6-minute gait test, 10-metre gait test, Functional Independence Measure, Barthel) are used to assess gait pattern and self-sufficiency.
