Integrated Sit-to-Stand and Stand-to-Sit Training System Providing Biofeedback Information and Physical Assistance to Hemiplegic Patients
This paper proposes a novel sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit (STS) training system for hemiplegic patients with clonus. Most hemiplegic patients depend on the unaffected leg and perform plantar flexion involuntarily during STS movements. The developed system integrates a visual biofeedback method with a movement assistance mechanism. The system provides users’ ground reaction force (GRF) through a...
متن کاملComparison of seat, waist, and arm sit-to-stand assistance modalities in elderly population.
The ability to perform a sit-to-stand (STS) motion is important for ambulatory adults to function independently and maintain daily activities. Roughly 6% of community-dwelling older adults experience significant difficulties with STS, a major risk factor for institutionalization. While mechanical STS assistance can help address this problem, full dependence on STS assistance provided by devices...
متن کاملImproving Transfer of Parkinson's Disease Patients – Sit-to-Stand Motion Assistance
In many areas of the world, population aging is steadily increasing. Japan became an aged society in 1995 and the numbers of Japanese citizens aged 65 years and above (elderly) continues to increase. In 2010, the percentage of elderly people in Japan reached 23.1%. In such a “super-aged” society, health maintenance, along with the prevention and treatment of diseases, are important long-term so...
متن کاملNatural trajectory generation for Robot-Human cooperation for sit-to-stand assistance
This paper presents a method to determine trajectory for robot that involves a close interaction between robotic systems and human beings.The proposed method considers robot trajectory as path in operational space and time rhythm distinct problems verifying the natural smoothness of voluntary human movement. Operational space path is determined experimentally as individual movement pattern. The...
متن کاملCharacterization of a least effort user-centered trajectory for sit-to-stand assistance
Sit-to-stand transfer is a prerequisite for locomotion and induces a lot of effort from elderly or disabled people. In the context of a project based on a locomotion and sit-to-stand assistance robotics device, we present a methodology to tune the trajectory of active handles so that the verticalisation effort of the user is minimised. The methodology is user-centered in the sense that the robo...
