The Effects of Gait Performance and Brain Activity After Robot-assisted Gait Training (RAGT) On Patients With Lower Extremity Thermal Injury
Gait Disorder, Sensorimotor
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Gait Disorder, Sensorimotor focused on measuring robot, burn patient, functional near-infrared spectroscopy
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: patients with full or virtually full thickness involvement of >50% on the body surface area of the bilateral lower extremity age > 18 years with ≤1 functional ambulation category (FAC) score ≤ 3 Exclusion Criteria: patients with cognitive disorders intellectual impairment before burn injury serious cardiac dysfunction problems with weight bearing due to unstable fractures body weight ≥100 kg severe fixed contracture skin disorders that could be worsened by RAGT and conventional rehabilitation patients with severe pain who were unable to undergo conventional rehabilitation programs

RAGT enables training of automatically programmed normal gait pattern. Patients underwent 30 min of RAGT using SUBAR® and conventional exercise rehabilitation each for 30 min once a day for 5 days a week for 8 weeks.
The conventional training group focused on gait training such as active range of motion (ROM) exercise, weight bearing training, manual lymphatic drainage, and hypertrophic scar care for 60 min once a day for 5 days a week for 8 weeks.
