About this trial
The aim of this work is to elaborate a statistical model to predict the effectiveness of robotic treatment in subjects with neurological diseases. The model will be used to understand which subjects are most responsive to this type of treatment

Treatments tested in this trial
Robotic Assisted Gait Training with G-EO system
DeviceRobotic-assisted gait training is a rehabilitation treatment that applies robotic technologies to improve mobility of patients with stroke or other neurological disorders. In this study, participants will use the G-EO system robotic device according to the daily clinical practice of the Don Gnocchi Foundation.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Change in gait speed
The 10 Meter Walk Test is a performance measure used to assess walking speed in meters per second over a short distance. The time to cover 6 meters is measured and the walking speed is calculated. higher speed indicates better performance.
Secondary outcomes
Trunk control
The Trunk Control Test can be used to assess the motor impairment of the trunk in a patient, the total score range is 0 (minimum) to 100 (maximum, indicating better performance)
Mobility
The Modified Rivermead Mobility Index (MRMI) is recommended to assess mobility in neurological patients. the total score range is 0 (minimum) to 40 (maximum, indicating better mobility)
Strength
The 5 time sit to stand test asses functional lower extremity strength, transitional movements, balance, and fall risk in older adults and patient population. The time to stand up and sit down 5 times is measured. Lower time indicates better performance.
Walking Endurance
The 6 Minute Walk Test is a sub-maximal exercise test used to assess aerobic capacity and endurance. The distance covered over a time of 6 minutes is used as the outcome by which to compare changes in performance capacity. the distance covered in 6 minutes is measured. Greater distance indicates better performance.
