Abstract
With the intensification of global aging problems, the incidence of central nervous system diseases such as stroke is getting higher and higher. At the same time, the number of disabled people has also increased. Amputation and neurological diseases are important causes of disability, and neurorehabilitation is an important method for restoring the nervous function and autonomous movement ability of the disabled. At present, neurorehabilitation methods commonly used in clinical treatment mainly include: wearing prosthetic limbs, functional electrical stimulation (FES) therapy, rehabilitation robots, and so on. The prosthetic limb refers to an artificial device used to replace the function of a lost limb. Many advanced technologies are being used to improve the motion control of prosthetics to achieve natural movement. FES is a technique that can improve physiological function or treat diseases by stimulating nerves or tissues through current, and has become one of the important means to promote nerve regeneration and restore motor function. Rehabilitation robots are the equipment that uses mechanical devices and advanced control technology to assist rehabilitation treatment and functional recovery. This article mainly discusses the current research progresses of prosthetic limbs, EFS and rehabilitation robots, so as to promote the development of neurorehabilitation.
