In addition to this, when gait analysis was applied, a substantial number of asymmetrical patients were identified, even in a group of diplegic spastic CP. This information should be considered during ...
This paper presents a neuro-musculoskeletal simulation approach to human gait based on an original model of central pattern generator and the muscle synergy approach. The controller, shown here, aims ...
Introduction Spasticity is one of the primary pathologies associated with cerebral palsy (CP), yet no definitive evidence exists to guide the appropriate level of spasticity management for an ...
Studies from this time suggested SDR to be of most benefit for young children with spastic diplegic CP, without dyskinesia or ataxia, without significant cognitive disability and with ...
Knee exoskeletons have gained increasing attention for gait training and intervention. The effectiveness of conventional rigid exoskeletons is degraded by bulkiness, high inertia, and joint ...
