Usability and Safety of the ATLAS 2030 Robotic Gait Device in Children with Cerebral Palsy and Spinal Muscular Atrophy.

Purpose: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the safety and usability of the ATLAS 2030 in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA).

Materials And Methods: the sample consisted of six children, three with CP and three with SMA, who received eight sessions of robot-assisted gait therapy. Safety was measured by the presence of adverse events.

Early implementation of MAK robotic device in total knee arthroplasty rehabilitation: A proof-of-concept study.

Background: Effective rehabilitation following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is crucial for enhancing both range of motion (ROM) and functional outcomes. While robotics has demonstrated its potential in various medical contexts, the evidence on its application in TKA rehabilitation is still scarce. The marsi active knee (MAK), a robotic device that has already proven to be safe and beneficial in people with neurological disease, has been tested to facilitate the rehabilitation of TKA patients.

Modularity Implications of an Overground Exoskeleton on Plantar Pressures, Strength, and Spasticity in Persons with Acquired Brain Injury.

This study explored the effects of a modular overground exoskeleton on plantar pressure distribution in healthy individuals and individuals with Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). The research involved 21 participants, including ABI patients and healthy controls, who used a unique exoskeleton with adaptable modular configurations. The primary objective was to assess how these configurations, along with factors such as muscle strength and spasticity, influenced plantar pressure distribution.

STELO: A New Modular Robotic Gait Device for Acquired Brain Injury-Exploring Its Usability.

In recent years, the prevalence of acquired brain injury (ABI) has been on the rise, leading to impaired gait functionality in affected individuals. Traditional gait exoskeletons are typically rigid and bilateral and lack adaptability. To address this, the STELO, a pioneering modular gait-assistive device, was developed.

Safety and usability of the MAK exoskeleton in patients with stroke.

Background And Purpose: Stroke is one of the leading causes of disability in adults worldwide, and one of the main objectives in the rehabilitation of these patients is to recover the gait. New technologies have emerged to cope with this issue, complementing conventional therapy with the use of devices such as exoskeletons. The Marsi Active Knee (MAK) exoskeleton (Marsi Bionics SL, Madrid, Spain) has already been tested, but an updated version was improved to allow the patients to perform functional exercises.
