Provided are a support rehabilitation training robot and an operation method thereof. The support rehabilitation training robot includes a crawler-type walking machine, a pedestal, a lifting lead screw mechanism, a manipulator and a counterweight mechanism. The manipulator includes a shoulder joint, a revolute joint, an elbow joint and a wrist joint. Each of the joints includes a motor, a harmonic reducer and an output terminal.

An electromechanical device for rehabilitation includes a motor and a control system including one or more processing devices operatively coupled to the motor. The one or more processing devices are configured to, responsive to a first trigger condition occurring, control the motor to operate in a passive mode, responsive to a second trigger condition occurring, control the motor to operate in an active-assisted mode, and responsive to a third trigger condition occurring, control the motor, by providing resistance, to operate in a resistive mode.

An apparatus for supporting rehabilitation of a user includes a detector that detects a direction of a head of the user wearing a head mounted display, and a display controller that generates, in a virtual space, a rehabilitation target object to be visually recognized by the user and displays the target object on the head mounted display in accordance with the direction of the head of the user detected by the detector. To avoid risk that the user interferes with an object in a real space, the display controller further controls display of the head mounted display.

Described herein are various embodiments of differential air pressure systems and methods of using and calibration such systems for individuals with impaired mobility. The differential air pressure systems may include an access assist device configured to help a mobility impaired user to stand in a pressure chamber configured to apply a positive pressure on a portion of the user's body in the sealed pressure chamber. The system may also include load sensors configured to measure the user's weight exerted inside and outside the chamber. The system may be calibrated by determining a relationship between the actual weight of the user and the pressure in the chamber, where the actual weight of the user may be measured by more than one load sensor and at least one load sensor is not in the pressure chamber.

A patient support apparatus may include a frame. A control module may be positioned on the frame. A graphical user interface may be in communication with the control module. An exercise apparatus may be coupled to the frame and may be in communication with the control module.

A hand manipulation device and methods of making and using which include a plurality of rails and connectors that are interconnected to allow the user to push and/or pull on the device so that the connectors slide along the rails. In this manner, the hand manipulating device provides an ability for the user to perform various therapeutic exercises with his/her hands and fingers. Additionally, the hand manipulation device can be equipped with elastomeric bands that can be used to provide an additional elastic force in order to further exercise the user's hands and fingers.

There is described an integrated unweighted gait training system having an unweighting system comprising a computer controller; a gait measurement system in communication with the controller; and a display in communication with the computer controller adapted and configured to provide real-time feedback to a user of the integrated unweighting gait training system. The unweighting system may be a differential air pressure (DAP) unweighting system or a non-DAP unweighting system.

A seated treadmill has a structure with a front portion and a rear portion. A front roller is rotatably mounted on the front portion of the structure, a rear roller is rotatably mounted on the rear portion of the structure, and a belt circumscribes the front and rear rollers. The front and rear rollers are much closer together than prior art treadmills, typically about 10-30 inches. The treadmill may further include a remote control for controlling operation of the treadmill, and a shutoff switch in the event that too much force is placed upon the treadmill, such as if the user attempts to stand on the treadmill.

A treatment apparatus includes a machine configured to be manipulated by a patient to perform a regimen for rehabilitation and one or more internal sensors configured to generate data indicating performance of the regimen by the patient. The machine is configured to receive at least one of a first input from a clinician interface and a second input from a patient interface. The first input corresponds to a prompt, presented on the clinician interface, to modify the regimen based on the data indicating performance of the regimen and the second input corresponds to at least one response to a plurality of questions, presented on the patient interface, pertaining to a current or past physical condition of the patient. The machine is further configured, responsive to the at least one of the first input and the second input, to selectively stop or prevent operation of the machine by the patient.

A smart exercise device includes an interface comprising a smart mirror configured to present information pertaining to a treatment plan being performed by a user while the user interacts with the smart exercise device. A processing device is configured to cause the smart exercise device to perform one or more functions related to the treatment plan, such as cause one or more preventative actions to be performed based on whether the processing device receives one or more messages, cause one or more content items to be presented to the user on the interface, assign the treatment plan to the smart exercise device based on a determined eligibility of the user, and implement the treatment plan to reduce a probability of a cardiac intervention for the user.
