A neuromechanics-based powered ankle exoskeleton to assist walking post-stroke: a feasibility study

JOURNAL OF NEUROENGINEERING AND REHABILITATION, 12.

By: K. Takahashi*, M. Lewek * & G. Sawicki*

author keywords: Stroke; Exoskeleton; Gait; Rehabilitation; Ankle
MeSH headings : Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Ankle; Ankle Joint; Artificial Limbs; Biomechanical Phenomena; Bionics; Electromyography; Energy Metabolism; Feasibility Studies; Female; Foot; Humans; Male; Mechanical Phenomena; Middle Aged; Paresis / rehabilitation; Prosthesis Design; Robotics; Stroke Rehabilitation; Walking
TL;DR: This feasibility study demonstrated that the exoskeleton can enhance paretic ankle moment, and appeared to reduce the net metabolic power gradually with each 5 minute repetition, though no statistical significance was found. (via Semantic Scholar)

2015 journal article

Six degree-of-freedom analysis of hip, knee, ankle and foot provides updated understanding of biomechanical work during human walking

JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL BIOLOGY, 218(6), 876–886.

By: K. Zelik *, K. Takahashi n & G. Sawicki n

author keywords: Biomechanics; Foot work; Gait analysis; Inverse dynamics; Joint work; Mechanical work
MeSH headings : Adult; Ankle Joint / physiology; Biomechanical Phenomena; Female; Foot / physiology; Hip Joint / physiology; Humans; Knee Joint / physiology; Male; Walking; Young Adult
TL;DR: Six degree-of-freedom (6DOF) analysis of hip–knee–ankle–foot better captures energy changes of the body during gait than conventional 3DOF joint work estimates, revealing increased work contributions from the hip. (via Semantic Scholar)
