In the researchers' words
The recovery of walking ability is one of the primary rehabilitation goals for children with neurological impairment. The aim of the study is to investigate the clinical effectiveness of rehabilitation treatments based of Robotic-Assisted Gait Training (RAGT). Additional goals of the research are to identify the specific effects of RAGT in children with different etiologies (acquired brain injury and cerebral palsy) and with different levels of function (according to the Gross Motor Function Classification System).
