Background: Walking is very important for children with cerebral palsy but they lack voluntary coordination ofmuscle movements. Moreover, affected children have their own pattern of walking which is different from normal walking. Thus, gait analysis is a great tool for diagnosis with the aim to rehabilitate the children as best as possible.Objective: To compare lower extremity range of motion during walking between children with cerebral palsy and normal children.Methods: The participants were 15 children with cerebral palsy (5 - 15 years of age). Their motor abilities wereclassified at level 1 - 3 on the Gross Motor Function Classification System. The …

Background/aim: The aim of the study was to determine the effects of robotic-assisted gait training on ambulation and functional capacity in patients with spinal cord injury.Materials and methods: In total, 88 patients were included and were randomly divided into two groups. The first group underwent 16 sessions of robotic therapy training for 8 weeks and conventional therapy for 5 days a week. The second group underwent conventional treatment. The Walking Index for Spinal Cord Injury II was used to evaluate functional ambulation, and the functional independence measure score was used to assess patients' functional independence levels in a blind manner.Results: …
