Research Objectives: Practice based evidence is lacking on the use of robotic-assisted gait training with the brain injured population. In this preliminary study we investigated patients at our facility with traumatic
and anoxic brain injury that use the Lokomat as part of their physical therapy program. We analyzed the injury severity level, disability level, walking speeds, frequency.
