Effects of Hip-Assist Exoskeleton Torque on Gait Parameters

Conditions: Healthy Volunteers, Robotic Exoskeleton, Wearable Devices, Assistive Devices, Biomechanics

Sex: All
Ages: 19 Years – N/A
Healthy volunteers: Yes
Phase: NA
Enrollment: 28
Sponsor: Yonsei University

Location: Severance Hospital Seoul Seoul

Summary

This study aims to evaluate the impact of assistive torque from a hip-assist exoskeleton on gait patterns in healthy adults. The investigators will analyze how different torque settings affect spatiotemporal parameters, joint kinematics, muscle activity (EMG), and foot pressure during walking.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Healthy adults aged 19 years or older without gait impairment. 2. Body weight between 50kg and 100kg. 3. No history of hip surgery. 4. Capable of wearing a hip-assist exoskeleton. 5. Voluntarily signed the informed consent form. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Skin or musculoskeletal issues that prevent wearing the exoskeleton. 2. Inability to walk independently while wearing the exoskeleton. 3. Other conditions deemed inappropriate by the investigator.
