Due to complications such as stroke, spinal cord injuries, and cerebral palsy, some or all of the lower extremity locomotor functions may be lost. With such patients; when correct and appropriate rehabilitation programs are applied in, a positive increase in locomotor functions can be achieved. Especially in hemiplegic cases, successful results are obtained with the help of early rehabilitation programs.
Thanks to the developments in technology, the idea of using robotic systems in rehabilitation processes has been put forward. During the process, robotic rehabilitation devices with different techniques and strategies were produced and started to be used actively. In this study, technologies, working principles and contributions to the treatment processes of robotic rehabilitation devices used in the rehabilitation of patients who have lost lower extremity function due to stroke, spinal cord injuries, and cerebral palsy were evaluated.

ALT EKSTREMİTENİN ROBOTİK REHABİLİTASYONU

Öz

İnme, omurilik yaralanmaları, serebral palsi gibi rahatsızlıklar nedeni ile alt ekstremite lokomotor fonksiyonlarının bir kısmı veya tamamı kaybedilebilmektedir. Bu tip hastalarda doğru ve uygun rehabilitasyon programları uygulandığında lokomotor fonksiyonlarda pozitif artış sağlanabilmektedir. Özellikle hemiplejik vakalarda erken dönemde uygulanan rehabilitasyon programları yardımı ile başarılı sonuçlar elde edilmektedir.
Teknolojide meydana gelen gelişmeler ile birlikte robotik sistemlerin rehabilitasyon süreçlerinde kullanımı fikri ortaya atılmıştır. Süreç içerisinde farklı teknik ve stratejilere sahip robotik rehabilitasyon cihazları üretilmiş ve aktif olarak kullanılmaya başlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada inme, omurilik yaralanmaları, serebral palsi gibi rahatsızlıklar nedeni ile alt ekstremite fonksiyon kaybına uğramış hastaların rehabilitasyonunda kullanılan robotik rehabilitasyon cihazlarının teknolojileri, çalışma prensipleri ve tedavi proseslerine getirdiği katkılar değerlendirilmiştir.
