Implication

This randomized controlled trial compares walking function recovery using an exoskeleton in subacute stroke patients, indicating optimal training regimens.

Key Points

To compare the therapeutic effects of different training intensities and durations of exoskeleton-assisted walking on recovery in subacute stroke.
Participants with subacute stroke were randomly assigned to four fixed intervention groups.
Each group received varied speed and duration of robot-assisted walking along with conventional rehabilitation.
Clinical measures were assessed pre- and post-intervention, including walk tests and gait parameters.
All groups showed significant improvements in clinical outcomes after the intervention (P < 0.05).
Significant differences were identified in 10-Meter Walk Test (P<0.001) and other measures.
Groups with higher speed and longer sessions (T1S2, T2S1, T2S2) had better improvements in walking function.
