Gait rehabilitation using function electrical stimulation (FES) and assistive exoskeletons

可穿戴机器人和FES是目前用于神经系统患者步态康复的两种最先进的技术。这两种干预可以对用户的行走能力具有显著的矫正和治疗效果，以及与用户的直立姿势和/或改善的血液循环相关联的健康益处。该项目的目的是强调增强物理治疗的治疗效果，以减少患者对支持设备的依赖。

Wearable robots and FES are two of the most advanced technologies currently used in gait rehabilitation for neurological patients. Both interventions can have significant orthotic and therapeutic effects on the user's walking ability as well as health benefits associated with the user's upright posture and/or improved blood circulation. The aim of this project is to emphasise on augmenting the therapeutic outcomes of physical therapy to contribute towards reducing the patients' reliance on supportive devices.
