Robot assisted gait retraining is an increasingly common method for supporting restoration of walking function after neurological injury. Gait speed, an indicator of walking function, is correlated with propulsive force, a measure modulated by the posture of the trailing limb at push-off. With the ultimate goal of improving efficacy of robot assisted gait retraining, we sought to directly target gait propulsion, by exposing subjects to pulses of joint torque applied at the hip and knee joints to modulate push-off posture. In this work, we utilized a robotic exoskeleton to apply pulses of torque to the hip and knee joints, during individual strides, of 16 healthy control subjects, and quantified the effects of this intervention on hip extension and propulsive impulse during and after application of these pulses. We observed significant effects in the outcome measures primarily at the stride of pulse application and generally no after effects in the following strides. Specifically, when pulses were applied at late stance, we observed a significant increase in propulsive impulse when knee and/or hip flexion pulses were applied and a significant increase in hip extension angle when hip extension torque pulses were applied. When pulses were applied at early stance, we observed a significant increase in propulsive impulse associated with hip extension torque.
