ABSTRACT

The use of robotic devices (RD) in combination with traditional kinesitherapy is a promising direction in the rehabilitationof neurological patients with severe motor impairment. The classifications of RD used for restorative treatment as wellas brief information on the RD that are currently produced are reviewed in this article. Information about benefits and risksof robot-assisted therapy in comparison with traditional methods of neurorehabilitation is presented. The results of metaanalysisand randomized studies devoted to the clinical effectiveness of the RD application are discussed. Moreover, thequestion of the economic efficiency of robot therapy is considered. Particular attention is paid to the ethical aspects of thedevelopment of new rehabilitation facilities and requirements for an "ideal" neurorehabilitation robot.
