Inability to make movements which require groups of muscles to act together in varying degrees of co-contraction.. Easiest to observe during single-stance phase as requires co-contraction of leg muscles in order to support body weight, whilst co-ordinated change in the relative activity of the muscles to move body weight forward. LOWER EXTREMITYIn robotic gait rehabilitation, patients and therapists often face the same challenges. Loss of precious time to due tedious set up procedures, limitations long-desired gamechanger  G-EOSFor over 10 years Reha Technology has been successfully developing innovative robot-assisted gait therapy systems for use in the x00660069eld of neurological rehabilitation Based on the end-ex006 ALAN DION.

GAIT. 1- Normal Walking. 2- Gait cycle – phases, temporal parameters. 3. - Determinants of gait. 4. - Kinematic & kinetic analysis. Purpose of gait aids. Increase area of support, maintain center of gravity over support area. Redistribute weight-bearing area. Canes. Body weight transmission is 20-25%. OA hip. OA knee. Impaired balance. Gait is defined as "Series of rhythmic cyclic movements of the limbs in relation to the trunk resulting in forward progression of the body".. 2. GAIT CYCLE. It is defined as "a series of events in which heel of one extremity strikes the ground to the next heel strike of the same extremity".. If we analyze the gait what plane is the person walking?. Looking at the right leg, we can label each part of the gait along with phases. . Footstrike. Eccentric. Stance/Support. Isometric. Toe Off. Concentric.
