Abstract | Objective: To determine the cardiometabolic demands associated with exoskeletal-assisted walking (EAW) in persons with paraplegia. This study will further examine if training in the device for 60 sessions modifies cost of transport (CT). Design: Prospective cohort study. Measurements over the course of a 60-session training program, approximately 20 sessions apart. Setting: James J. Peters Bronx Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Center for the Medical Consequences of Spinal Cord Injury Research Center. Participants: The participants' demographics (N=5) were 37-61 years old, body mass index (calculated as weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared) of 22.7-28.6, level of injury from T1-T11, and 2-14 years since injury. Interventions: Powered EAW. Main outcome measures: Oxygen consumption per unit time (V˙O Results: With training: EAW velocity significantly improved (Pre: 51±51m; 0.14±0.14m/s vs Post: 99±42m; 0.28±0.12m/s, P=.023), RPE significantly decreased (Pre: 13±6 vs Post: 7±4, P=.001), V˙O Conclusions: The current study suggests that EAW training improves oxygen uptake efficiency and walking velocities, with a lower perception of exertion. |
