Multiparametric assessment of the MyoSuit, a bi-articular exoskeleton designed to assist gait and transfers in adults with neuromuscular diseases
The MyoSuit was not associated with improvements in functional performance in NMD. The use of the device was associated with kinematic alterations and the assistance provided alleviated recruitment of the rectus femoris. The proposed approach is promising but further tailoring of the device is required to address specific needs of individuals with severe muscle weakness.
