RESUMO
Early weight-bearing and trunk control training are essential components for promoting lower limb motor recovery in individuals with stroke. In this case study, we presented the successful implementation of a three-week wearable self-balancing exoskeleton robot training program for a 57-year-old male patient who had suffered from a stroke. After carefully reviewing the patient's previous medical records, conducting a thorough assessment, and excluding other potential contraindications, we introduced wearable self-balancing exoskeleton robot training to complement conventional rehabilitation in managing balance and lower limb function. The training program included early initiation of weight bearing and trunk control training following an ischemic stroke, aimed at promoting motor recovery and improving functional independence. The findings indicated that training with a wearable self-balancing exoskeleton robot enhanced the balance and motor function of the hemiplegic patient, with commendable adherence. Furthermore, the participants consistently reported increased satisfaction and confidence during the training sessions. This case report not only provided preliminary evidence of the effectiveness of the wearable self-balancing exoskeleton robot in promoting functional recovery following a stroke but also outlined a comprehensive training program that may hold value for future clinical application.
