wearable robotics. Students participated in =E2=80=98mini-projects=E2=80=

Effect of a Soft Robotic Sock Device on Lower Extremity Rehabilitation

following Stroke: New Early Access Article from JTEHM





In this preliminary clinical study, we tested the effect of a novel soft robotic sock device, capable of providing assisted ankle exercise, in improving blood flow in the lower limb for the prevention of complications of stroke such as deep vein thrombosis and joint contracture. The results of the clinical trial show that the sock device improves venous blood flow in the early phase of device use and assists with ankle joint exercise.
