“…With many countries entering the aging society, more than 100 million stroke patients were declared, and a total number of 12.2 million were reported in 2019, according to the report data of the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) [ 1 ]. The strokes are a major cause of death and extremity disability in world, and elderly care need to occupy a significant portion of the medical care resources [ 2 , 3 , 4 ]. For the disability of the lower extremity limits functional independence in activities of daily living, the research of lower extremity robotic walker, which is more effective than traditional gait training in improving waking ability and balance, receives extensive attentions [ 5 , 6 ].…”

BACKGROUND: Along with China entering an aging society, the percentage of people that over 60 will reach 34.9% in 2050, resulted in a significant increase in stroke patients. OBJECTIVE: This paper proposes a rehabilitation robotic walker for walking assistance during the daily life, and a control method for the motor relearning during the gait training. The walker consists of an omni-directional mobile platform (OMP) which ensures the walker can move on the ground, a body weight support system (BWS) which is capable of providing the desired unloading force, and a pelvic assist mechanism (PAM) to provide the user with four degrees of freedom and avoid the rigid impact. The study goal is to gain a better understanding of the assist-as-needed control strategy during the gait training. METHODS: For the man-machine interaction control, the assist-as-needed control strategy is adopted to guide the users’ motions and improve the interaction experience. To build the force field in the three-dimensional space, the dynamics of the system is derived to increase the accuracy of force control. RESULTS: The simulation results show that the force field around the motion trajectory was generated in the three-dimensional space. In order to understand the force field, we designed the simulation on sagittal plane and the controller can generate the appropriate force field. The preliminary experiment results were consistent with the simulation results. CONCLUSION: Based on the mathematical simulation and the preliminary test, the results demonstrate that the proposed system can provide the guide force around the target trajectory, the accuracy of force control still remains to be improved.

“…To combat this rise, rehabilitative regimes, comprising of healthcare professionals and their respective tools, have been established. These regimes are crucial to preventing muscle atrophy and adhesion in individuals diagnosed with dysbasia [5]. However, a major limitation of the current method is the financial burden placed on the patient and the healthcare system], but community-based rehabilitation is the major method to improve gait function and minimize functional deficits for subsequent treatments.…”

A cornerstone of the rehabilitative regime for people diagnosed with dyskinesia is walking assist and gait training, however, prolonged care, provided by relatives or professionals, serves as a massive financial burden to patients. The proposed novel robotic walker seeks to address this concern. The walker incorporates human motion intention recognition to facilitate lower limb rehabilitation training and daily walking. The walker design places strong emphasis on patient safety and quality of life by providing omnidirectional walking assist, four key pelvic motions that support hip rotations and comfortable body weight support (BWS). Additionally, five sensors were installed to identify the user's motion intention from the interaction forces surrounding the pelvis and dead zone. Furthermore, Kalman filtering was used to guarantee the quality of the interactive signal while kinematic and dynamic models were derived to generate appropriate driving velocities to support patient's body weight and improve mobility. To validate our design, MATLAB simulations and exploratory clinical trials using healthy subjects were performed. Preliminary results demonstrate satisfactory kinematic performance and suggest the walker as a promising therapeutic avenue for individuals suffering from dyskinesia and other associated movement disorders.

The purpose of the study was to consider the main methods of increasing the physical activity of people with disabilities (in wheelchairs) in emergency situations, military conflicts, natural disasters, etc. Materials and methods. The study of physical rehabilitation of people with disabilities (in wheelchairs) was conducted by the author during many years working as a trainer of the Kyiv Regional Center for Physical Culture and Sports for the Disabled “Invasport” and continued during the military actions in the country in 2022–2023 with an emphasis on the problems of rehabilitation of patients in military and emergency conditions. In order to increase the physical activity of people with disabilities (in wheelchairs) in conditions limited by military operations, it is recommended to pay special attention to exercises for the muscles of the neck, joints, and muscles of upper limbs; exercises for the lower limbs and pelvic organs; exercises for back and trunk muscles; balance exercises, breathing exercises, etc. Massage and self-massage procedures will also be useful in such situations. Results and discussion. The effectiveness of rehabilitation and, as a result, the successful outcome of maintaining the physical activity of people with spinal injuries and disabilities largely depends on the early start and correct selection of rehabilitation programs. In addition, the choice of methods and means of physical rehabilitation and physical activity for people with disabilities in the limited military and emergency conditions depends on their general physical and mental condition, the presence of accompanying diseases and complications, as well as on the surrounding circumstances. However, regardless of the difficulties and surrounding circumstances, people with disabilities (in a wheelchair) or with an injury and spine diseases must be engaged in physical therapy and do physical exercises in order not to lose the physical capacity for action, even limited, to be able to adapt to the circumstances and mobilize functional reserves of their bodies. Conclusion. Comprehensive rehabilitation is an integral part of therapy for patients with spinal injuries, people with disabilities (in wheelchairs), etc. Physical exercises not only affect the development of the motor activity of people with disabilities but also increase the body's resistance to adverse environmental factors, activating vegetative systems, stimulating and normalizing functions of body systems. The gradual adaptation of the body to physical exertion leads to adaptation, mobilization and use of the body's functional reserves. Physical training itself is an adaptation process that activates the body's hidden reserves
