Effects of Lokomat Training on Dynamic Postural Stability in Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury
2026年6月1日 更新者:I.R.C.C.S. Fondazione Santa Lucia
Evaluation of the Effects of Robotic Training on Dynamic Postural Stability, Symmetry, and Gait Smoothness in Subjects With Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury: a Randomized Controlled Trial
The study aims to evaluate the effects of robotic-assisted gait training (Lokomat) on dynamic postural stability in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI).
Participants will be randomized into two groups: one receiving robotic training and another receiving conventional postural stability exercises.
The primary evaluation will use the Mini-BESTest, supplemented by objective gait analysis using wearable inertial sensors (IMUs) to measure symmetry, fluidity, and stability.
A secondary objective is to compare these gait indices between SCI patients and healthy individuals.
