Robotic Assistance in Locomotive Health Recovery: A review

Robotic assistance has become essential for patients with motor dysfunction, and compared to passive training, robot-assisted training with subjective locomotion intentions promotes better health recovery. In this review, the authors briefly mention robot-assisted restoration of musculoskeletal health as a pressing new field in rehabilitation. Robotic application to restore musculoskeletal health can enhance rehabilitation, but must be used according to well-defined scientific protocols. The field of robotic therapy poses challenges for both technology and clinical practice.
