Abstract (Spanish)
La parálisis cerebral (PC) es la causa más común de discapacidad física grave y permanente en la infancia. Aunque se han desarrollado muchas plataformas, hasta ahora no existen directrices precisas para la rehabilitación de la población con PC. El CPWalker es una plataforma robótica para la rehabilitación de niños con parálisis cerebral, mediante la cual pueden empezar a experimentar la locomoción autónoma en el entorno de la rehabilitación. Permite la posibilidad de movimiento libre e incluye interfaces físicas y cognitivas en la terapia. El objetivo principal de este trabajo es evaluar los efectos de la intervención de rehabilitación basada en el CPWalker en niños con parálisis cerebral, comparando diferentes parámetros de la marcha antes, durante y después del uso de la plataforma.
Abstract (English)
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is the most common cause of permanent serious physical disability in childhood. Although many platforms have been developed, so far there are still not precise guidelines for the rehabilitation of the population with CP. The CPWalker is a robotic platform for the rehabilitation of children with CP, through which they can start experiencing autonomous locomotion in the rehabilitation environment. It allows the possibility of free movement and includes physical and cognitive interfaces into the therapy. The main objective of this work is to evaluate the effects of the CPWalker-based rehabilitation intervention in children with CP by comparing different gait parameters before, during and after the use of the platform.
