A moderate correlation was found between the number of sessions and the patients’ satisfaction score (rho = 0.532 p < 0.001), and an excellent correlation between the physiotherapists’ time of experience in neurology rehabilitation and the satisfaction with the possibility of combining the device with other gait trainings approaches (rho = 0.723 p = 0.003). A high level of satisfaction was reported for patients and for physiotherapists. To evaluate patients’ satisfaction the Quebec User Evaluation with Assistive Technology and Client Satisfaction Questionnaire were used. Clinical data and self-administered scales data were registered from all patients who performed sessions with EKSO GT ®. A cross-sectional study with 54 participants was conducted.
The aim of this study was to explore the patients’ and physiotherapists’ satisfaction from gait training with the EKSO GT ® exoskeleton in people with multiple sclerosis (MS).
However, it is important to understand users’ perspectives. Wearable exoskeletons have showed improvements in levels of disability and quality of life in people with neurological disorders.
