Exercise intensity of robot-assisted walking versus overground walking in nonambulatory stroke patients. J Rehabil Res Dev. 2012;49(10):XX–XX. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2011.12.0252 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2011.12.0252JSP Aim – Investigate whether exercise intensity during Lokomat therapy elicits a training effect. – Determine how assistance while walking with Lokomat affects this exercise intensity. Relevance – Robot-assisted treadmill exercise (using Lokomat device) could increase duration of walking therapy relative to conventional overground walking.

Oxygen and heart rate were monitored.

Exercise intensity of robot-assisted walking versus overground walking in nonambulatory stroke patients. J Rehabil Res Dev. 2012;49(10):XX–XX. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2011.12.0252 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2011.12.0252JSP Results Patients with stroke: – Exercise intensity during Lokomat walking: Didn’t reach recommended 30% heart rate reserve (HRR) for aerobic training. Lower than during overground walking. Nondisabled subjects: – Different Lokomat settings had only small effects on exercise intensity. (a) Oxygen consumption (VO 2 ). (b) HRR.
