LOWER LIMB REHABILITATION APPARATUS FOR IMPROVING WEIGHT-BEARING CAPACITY OF A LOWER LIMB AND A LOWER LIMB REHABILITATION METHOD THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: A lower limb rehabilitation apparatus and a lower limb rehabilitation method thereof are provided to easily rehabilitate a paraplegia patient due to a stroke, a traumatic brain damage, or etc. by providing feedback of rehabilitation movements to the patient.;CONSTITUTION: A first sensor(10) detects the weight of one lower limb of a patient in rehabilitation. A second sensor(20) detects an angle of a joint of the lower limb. A third sensor(30) detects the position of the other lower limb of the patient. A rehabilitation monitoring device(40) communicates with the first sensor, the second sensor, and the third sensor. The rehabilitation monitoring device determines a success of rehabilitation based on weight, angle, and position information received from the first, second, and third sensors.;COPYRIGHT KIPO 2012
