Description

<p>We evaluated the feasibility and safety protocol of the HAL intervention study to analyze the clinical condition that HAL was effective in the acute phase of stroke, and tested an intervention effect by the HAL. Method: A feasibility and safety as well as physical function and the activities of daily living in the stepped functional recovery program of HAL was evaluated for the 36 patients with stroke in the acute phase. Results: In the comparison between before and after HAL intervention, walking speed, 12-grade hemiplegia functional tests, NIHSS, Barthel index, and motor FIM showed a significant improvement. They were significantly associated with the initiation of the ambulation activity intervention by HAL, and the acquisition of walking speed 25 m/min or more. Discussion and Conclusion: A feasibility and safety of the stepped functional recovery program by HAL was proved in an acute stroke. Physical function and activities of daily living were useful in evaluating an intervention effect of stand- and ambulation- activity by HAL.</p>
