To investigate the feasibility of combining the lower-limb exoskeleton and body weight unweighing technology for assisted walking in tetraplegia following spinal cord injury (SCI). A 66-year-old participant with a complete SCI at the C7 level, graded on the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) as AIS A, participated in nine sessions of overground walking with the assistance from exoskeleton and body weight unweighing system. The participant could tolerate the intensity and ambulate with exoskeleton assistance for a short distance with acceptable and appropriate gait kinematics after training. This report showed that using technology can assist non-ambulatory individuals following SCI to stand and ambulate with assistance which may promote general physical and psychological health if used in the long term.
为了探讨将下肢外骨骼和减重技术相结合用于辅助脊髓损伤后四肢瘫痪患者行走的可行性。一名 66 岁的参与者，其 C7 水平完全性脊髓损伤，根据美国脊髓损伤协会损伤量表（AIS）评定为 AIS A 级，参与了 9 次外骨骼和减重系统辅助的地面行走。经过训练，参与者可以耐受强度，并在外骨骼辅助下短距离行走，步态运动学可接受且适当。本报告表明，使用该技术可以帮助非运动性脊髓损伤患者站立和辅助行走，如果长期使用，可能会促进其身心健康。
