Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
EXPERIMENTAL: Walkbot group
The Walkbot group received conventional physical therapy (session I for 40 min/day) companied with Walkbot training (session II for 30 min/day) 5 days a week for 4 weeks, 40 session in all.
After 4-week intervention all subjects received conventional physical therapy only, 40 min/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks.
|
The physiotherapist typed patient's information then Walkbot would adjust itself to this data and the exoskeleton legs lengthen or shorten to the patient. The computer screen would provide information about speed, duration, cadence and distance. The monitor in front of the patient can offer image and feedback during the therapy process for patients. The whole Walkbot training process was observed by one physiotherapist and should be always ready to adjust the unloading, duration, speed and guidance force of Walkbot according to patients' different situation such as muscle spasticity, gait quality, labor-consuming and observe the changes of patients' state.

PLACEBO_COMPARATOR: control group
The control group received conventional functional rehabilitation for 40 min/session, 2 sessions/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks, 40 sessions in all.
After 4-week intervention all subjects received conventional physical therapy only, 40 min/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks.
During the test period, general rehabilitation and drug treatment can be done at the same time.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
function ambulation category (FAC)
Time Frame: within 4 weeks after robot training
|
Function ambulation category was used for evaluating gait function.
The outcome variable were measured immediately before treatment start (pre-training), 4 weeks after treatment (post-training) and 4 weeks after robot-treatment (follow-up).
All the evaluations were done by the same professional therapist who was blind to the two group assignment.
|
within 4 weeks after robot training
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Berg balance scale (BBS)
Time Frame: within 4 weeks after robot training
|
Berg balance scale (BBS) were used for evaluating functional performance level after training.
The outcome variables were measured immediately before treatment start (pre-training), 4 weeks after treatment (post-training) and 4 weeks after robot-treatment (follow-up).
All the evaluations were done by the same professional therapist who was blind to the two group assignment.
|
within 4 weeks after robot training
|
Korean modified Barthel index (K-MBI)
Time Frame: within 4 weeks after robot training
|
Korean modified Barthel index (K-MBI) were used for evaluating functional performance level after training.
The outcome variables were measured immediately before treatment start (pre-training), 4 weeks after treatment (post-training) and 4 weeks after robot-treatment (follow-up).
All the evaluations were done by the same professional therapist who was blind to the two group assignment.
|
within 4 weeks after robot training

Other Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D)
Time Frame: within 4 weeks after robot training
|
EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D) was used for evaluating the effect of robot training to quality of life.
The outcome variable was measured immediately before treatment start (pre-training), 4 weeks after treatment (post-training) and 4 weeks after robot-treatment (follow-up).
All the evaluations were done by the same professional therapist who was blind to the two group assignment.
