简要总结
Robotic rehabilitation is very useful for improving functional recovery in neurological patients, there is not much evidence on its role in improving physiological responses (i.e. intestinal motility, orthostatic pressure), which are often abnormal in these patients.
To this end, we designed a randomized controlled experimental study on neurological patients, with the aim of evaluating the effects of robotic neurorehabilitation using Lokomat on physiological responses, compared to traditional therapy.

结局指标
主要结局
Delta of variation in maximum and minimum blood pressure
时间窗: 8 months
Orthostatic pressure derives from systolic pressure and / or diastolic blood pressure (BP) (about 10 mm / Hg) from supine to vertical. It is evaluated by delta of variation in maximum and minimum blood pressure.
Constipation Scoring System
时间窗: 8 months
Constipation Scoring System (CSS) is an eight-element self-report measure designed to assess the prevalence and severity of constipation. The authors used a pathophysiological definition of constipation. The scoring system is based on eight variables (frequency of bowel movements; difficult or painful evacuation; completeness of evacuation; abdominal pain; time per attempt; assistance including laxatives; digits or enemas; number of failed evacuation attempts in a period of 24 hours and duration of constipation). The CSS consists of seven objects that are marked using a five-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (no time) to 4 (all the time) and an article evaluated on a 0-2 scale. A total score can range from 0 (normal) to 30 (severe constipation). A limit score of 15 suggests constipation.
