Samenvatting

Energy consumption and cardiorespiratory load were assessed during 3 different walking conditions (Lokomat, treadmill and overground walking) in stroke patients. Preliminary results demonstrated that Lokomat walking was significantly less oxygen demanding than treadmill, but not overground walking. No significant differences in heart rate and minute ventilation were found. Further research with sufficient sample size and additional analyses will be performed to draw firm conclusions.
