Wearable rehabilitation exoskeletons of the lower limb: analysis of versatility and adaptability.

The use of a single wearable robot for different medical conditions in various diseases is a challenge. Based on this comparative, the properties of the exoskeletons that improve the working ability with different pathologies and patient conditions have been evaluated. Suggestions were made for developing a new lower-limb exoskeleton based on various modules with a distributed control system to improve versatility in wearable technology for different gait pattern progression.Implications for rehabilitationWearable robotic exoskeletons for gait assistance have been analysed from the perspective of adaptation to different diseases.This paper emphasizes the importance of personalized therapies and adaptive assistive technology.Suggestions were made for a new modular exoskeleton capable of addressing the issue of low versatility characterizing currently wearable assistive technology.
