Electromechanical-Assisted Training for Walking After Stroke

E lectromechanical-assisted gait training uses specialist machines to assist walking practice and might help to improve walking after stroke. ObjectivesThis update of our Cochrane review examined the effects of electromechanical and robot-assisted gait training devices for improving walking after stroke and also assessed the acceptability and safety of this type of therapy. MethodsWe searched the cochrane stroke group trials register (last searched, August 2016), the cochrane central register of controlled trials (Cochrane Library 2016; Issue 8), MEDLINE in Ovid (1950 to August 2016),
