The effect of suspension exercise combined with intelligent robot gait simulation training on lower limb motor function in early stroke patients
Objective:To investigate the efficacy of intelligent robotic gait simulation training combined with suspension exercise training for lower limb movement function recovery in the early stage after stroke,and to provide a more effective program for post-stroke patient rehabilitation.Method:Ninety stroke patients who met the inclusion criteria in Shandong provincial third hospital rehabilita-tion medicine services were selected and randomly divided into three groups:the control group(Group A),the weight reduction running table group(Group B),and the intelligent robot group(Group C),with 30 cas-es in each group.Patients in all three groups received conventional rehabilitation treatment.The control group received the suspension exercise training.On the basis the same treatment in the control group,the weight re-duction running table group received weight loss running table training,and the intelligent robot group re-ceived intelligent rehabilitation robot gait simulation training.The trunk control test(TCT),Fugl-Meyer assess-ment lower extremity(FMA-LE),Berg balance scale(BBS),Holden's functional ambulation category(FAC),and video gait analyzer were used to assess trunk control,lower limb motor function,balance,walking abili-ty and gait temporal parameters(stride frequency,walking speed,step length,and walking cycle)before treat-ment and after 4 weeks of treatment,respectively.Result:The differences were not statistically significant when comparing the indices of the three groups of pa-tients before treatment(P>0.05).After 4 weeks of treatment,all indicators were significantly better in all three groups than before treatment(P<0.05).The intelligent robot group and the weight reduction running table group were significantly better than the control group in terms of TCT,FMA-LE,BBS,FAC,and gait tem-poral parameters(stride frequency,walking speed,step length,and walking cycle)(P<0.05).Except for the walking cycle,all the other indexes in the intelligent robot group were significantly better than in the weight reduction running table group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Intelligent rehabilitation robot gait simulation training combined with suspension exercise training can strongly enhance the stability of the trunk core,correct abnormal gait,optimize balance function,and im-prove motor function and walking ability in early stroke patients.
