First seen Nov 16, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 23 times
Summary
This study tested whether adding controlled balance challenges (called perturbations) to a robotic body-weight support system helps stroke survivors improve walking and balance more than using the support system alone. The study included 114 adults recovering from a stroke in inpatient rehab. The approach used a harness on a track to prevent falls while practicing walking and standing. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
