Brief Summary:
The overall goal of this study is to determine whether robotic-assisted gait training is better than standard physical therapy treatments for improving walking ability in hemiparetic stroke patients
Detailed Description:
Subjects enrolled into the study will be randomly assigned to one of 2 groups The first group will receive one hour of conventional gait training consisting of lower extremity strengthening exercises stretching and full weight bearing walking as tolerated with appropriate physical assistance from a therapist The second group will receive walking therapy using a Lokomat which is a special treadmill that works in conjunction with 2 light-weight robotic arms that assists the subject to move their legs while they try to walk on the treadmill Some of the subjects body-weight will be supported using a harness During Lokomat training sessions subjects will receive feedback of their walking performance on a computer monitor to help them walk Both groups will be trained for 8-10 weeks 3 times per week for 1 hour training sessions 24 total sessions Resources for transportation to the National Rehabilitation Hospital will be provided to all study participants
