Experimenteel: Tibion Arm
Arm of the study in which enrolled subacute post-stroke subjects undergo lower extremity physical therapy using the Tibion Bionic Leg.
|
The Tibion Bionic Leg is used as an adjunct in post-stroke and post-operative rehabilitative physical therapy.
The leg is a lightweight, wearable, portable, battery-powered, motorized leg orthosis that provides active assistance and resistance to lower limb movement during walking, stair ascent and descent, and transfers from sitting to standing (and standing to sitting).
