Title
Effects of Exoskeleton Training Intervention on Net Loading Force in Chronic Spinal Cord Injury.
Abstract
The goal of this study was to understand the rehabilitative effects of longitudinal overground exoskeleton training $( >100$ hours) on gait mechanics, especially foot loading, for gains in walking speed in an individual with chronic motorincomplete SCI. Biomechanical measures included: normalized plantar loading forces, walking speed and bilateral weight transfer ratio during walking in the EksoGT $^{\mathrm{ TM}}$ exoskeleton. Longitudinal training with a robotic exoskeleton yielded improvements in clinical outcomes (AIS classification, ISNCSCI motor scores and 10MWT) and provided functional gains in terms of biomechanical outcomes (plantar forces, weight transfer point) to increase overall walking speed.
