Effect of a passive hip exoskeleton on walking distance in neurological patients.

Abstract: Study investigated the effect of a passive (operating without actuators and batteries) exoskeleton assisting hip flexion on total walking distance and rate of perceived exertion during a 5-week training study in patients affected by neurological diseases. Severe neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s disease or multiple sclerosis and acute events like stroke, spinal cord injuries, or other related pathologies have been shown to negatively impact the central and peripheral nervous systems, thus causing severe impairments to mobility. The development and utilization of exoskeletons as rehabilitation devices have shown good potential for improving patients’ gait function. Ten older adults (mean age: 68.9 years) affected by neurological diseases impacting their gait function completed a 10-session gait training protocol where they walked for 10 minutes wearing a passive exoskeleton assisting hip flexion called Exoband. Results showed that participants walked a significantly longer distance in the last session of training compared to the first session (453.1 vs 392.4 meters, respectively). Findings suggest the potential of Exoband as an effective tool for gait rehabilitation in patients with neurological diseases. Wearable, lightweight, and low-cost devices such as the one involved in this study have the potential to improve walking distance in patients.
