Walkbot robotic rehabilitation system for gait training

Walkbot is a robotic rehabilitation system for gait training, which can be used for adults as well as for children & adolescents. It is applicable for neurological or musculoskeletal impairments.

Your three tangible benefits:

  • Variants for adults and children
  • In case of severely limited walking function
  • At least 1,000 steps per training session

Functions and advantages

Everything you need to know about the features and benefits of the Walkbot robotic rehabilitation system for gait training need to know.

What is the Walkbot?

Walkbot helps with quick recovery after exercise and provides an interactive, functional, strengthening, motivating, natural and cost-effective movement system. Walkbot is a movement system that helps to realize the dreams of a perfect gait and offers a natural, accurate and customized gait pattern.

 

It is applicable to a variety of disease causes, examples:

 

  • Stroke
  • Spinal cord injury
  • Brain tumors
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Cerebral Palsy


It is applicable to a variety of disease causes such as stroke, SCI (spinal cord injury), brain tumor, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, etc.

Rehabilitation is an important aspect of treatment for patients suffering from stroke, SCI, TBI, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and other conditions related to neurorehabilitation. The Exoskeleton Gait Training System is an innovative medical device that helps patients with limited locomotion get their brains used to walking again.

This is called "neuroplasticity". The goal of rehabilitation is to maximize the patient's neuroplasticity and walk again.

Robotic Assisted Walkbot Gait Training provides repetitive practice, intensive training, and task-specific training, which are often cited as the best way to promote neuroplasticity.

Variants & Models

Walkbot G

 

The Walkbot G is the robotic-assisted gait training rehabilitation system for adults and pediatric patients with neurological and musculoskeletal conditions.

The dual robotic orthoses are suitable for adults and pediatric patients. They also help with locomotion training in different cases to maximize the training effect. The system works with the patient's own weight.

 

Walkbot K

 

Specially designed for children with a height between 86 cm and 148 cm.

In young patients, stiffness and resistance are more severe than in adult patients. In most cases, they even have no experience of walking after birth. Therefore, the effectiveness of the treatment is much lower despite longer training time.

Walkbot K functions with an ankle drive motor to provide a balanced gait pattern and correct gait pattern. It also provides relevant clinical information related to locomotion, including stiffness data related to spasticity or joint contracture, spatiotemporal data, kinematic and kinetic force data for hip, knee and ankle during locomotion training.

The application runs with a kind of gamification to make training fun for kids.

This consists of an age-appropriate augmented reality program to maximize interactive participation and motivation for children.

Summary:

The Walkbot is an advanced robotic gait training system designed specifically for patients with mobility impairments. It is a versatile solution that can be used for a variety of conditions, including stroke, spinal cord injury, brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy and others.

 

The Walkbot uses hip, knee and ankle drive motors to provide patients with a natural and precise gait pattern, resulting in faster recovery times. By providing targeted joint support, the system enables effective gait rehabilitation and promotes improved movement coordination and balance.

 

This interactive and functional device not only provides high-quality therapy, but is also cost-effective and highly motivating. The Walkbot helps patients regain their confidence by enabling them to walk again independently and achieve their rehabilitation goals.

 

With its customizable settings, the Walkbot can be individually adjusted to each patient's needs. Therapists can precisely control the training and adjust the rehabilitation process according to the patient's progress. This results in efficient and customized rehabilitation that accelerates recovery and improves patients' quality of life.

 

By using the Walkbot, patients can continuously improve their gait pattern and achieve increased mobility. The system enables patients to actively participate in their recovery and develop their potential.

 

Overall, the Walkbot is an ideal solution for adult patients with neurological or musculoskeletal impairments who want to strive for independent walking ability and achieve their rehabilitation goals. With its advanced technology and motivating design, the Walkbot helps patients regain their freedom of movement and return to an active and independent life.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions

Advantages from Walkbot

Compared to conventional therapy, the Walkbot Exoskeleton System provides at least 1000 steps in one training session, which is ten times more than conventional therapy. In addition, the robotic system requires only one therapist, while conventional therapy requires more than one therapist. Furthermore, the patients' training pattern is reproducible with the robotic system, so the patients can learn the gait in the right way.

 

The advantages of using the gait training robot

 

  1. It can apply accurate gait mechanism based on kinematic study, create the most natural gait pattern and prevent pointed foot and toe dragging.
  2. Natural Gait: That is, this device is designed to provide the most physiological kinematic and kinetic, as well as energy efficient gait patterns. These can help patients suffering from acute and severe stroke, spinal cord injury and also gait disorders to restore their optimal and automatic movement pattern and provide accelerated recovery during the rehabilitation period.
  3. Interactive: This means that this device can provide an intelligent interactive mode that automatically takes into account spasticity or associated stiffness, support and resistance forces, walking speed, and knee, hip and ankle kinetics. This maximizes automatic retention of the musculoskeletal relearning process in addition to enabling full recovery. The therapeutic speed is automatically adjusted to the patient's muscle strength. The treadmill and the robot detect the patient's condition and adapt to it, thus all three components interact with each other. When the patient reaches the target power, the therapeutic speed of the treadmill increases by 0.1 km / h to match the patient's condition. When the patient feels the resistance during the training, the therapeutic speed decreases.
  4. Economical: This means that this unit offers a cost-effective return on investment in the long run.
  5. Motivating: This walking device is equipped with 3D reality exploration, side scrolling game and virtual environment exploration. This fun, exciting and customized 3D augmented reality exercise game helps clients avoid thinking of gait training as a form of therapy. Rather, clients enjoy walking in an interactive and ecologically natural or virtual environment when using the walking device.
