A Propulsion Neuroprosthesis Improves Overground Walking in Community-Dwelling Individuals After Stroke

A Propulsion Neuroprosthesis Improves Overground Walking in Community-Dwelling Individuals After Stroke 150 150 IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology (OJEMB)
Functional electrical stimulation (FES) is a common neuromotor intervention whereby electrically evoked dorsiflexor muscle contractions assist foot clearance during walking. Plantarflexor neurostimulation has recently emerged to assist and retrain gait… read more

Walking Faster and Farther With a Soft Robotic Exosuit: Implications for Post-Stroke Gait Assistance and Rehabilitation 185 174 IEEE Open Journal of Engineering in Medicine and Biology (OJEMB)
Soft robotic exosuits can improve the mechanics and energetics of walking after stroke. Building on this prior work, we evaluated the effects of the first prototype of a portable soft robotic exosuit. read more
