摘要: AbstractPurpose: The majority of post-stroke individuals suffer from low exercise capacity as a secondary reaction to immobility. aim this study was prove the concept feedback-controlled robotics-assisted treadmill (RATE) assess aerobic and guide cardiovascular in severely impaired early after stroke. Method: Subjects underwent constant load incremental testing using human-in-the-loop feedback system within exoskeleton (Lokomat, Hocoma AG, CH). Inclusion criteria were: stroke onset ≤8 weeks, stable medical condition, non-ambulatory status, moderate motor control lower limbs appropriate cognitive function. Outcome measures included oxygen uptake kinetics, peak (VO2peak), gas exchange threshold (GET), heart rate (HRpeak), work (Ppeak) accuracy reaching target (P-RMSE). Results: Three subjects (18–42 d post-stroke) were included. Oxygen kinetics during cons...
