Аннотация
PURPOSE: To describe the implementation of an exoskeleton program in a rehabilitation setting using a Design Thinking framework.
METHODS: This is a retrospective case series of 3 randomly selected children who participated in skilled physical therapy using a pediatric exoskeleton that occurred on our journey to walking 1 000 000 steps in the exoskeleton devices. Participants ranged in age from 3 to 5 years, and all had neurologic disorders.
RESULTS: All participants improved toward achieving their therapy goals, tolerated the exoskeleton well, and had an increased number of steps taken over time.
CONCLUSION: The implementation of new technology into pediatric care and an established outpatient therapy clinic is described. The Design Thinking process applies to health care professionals and improves clinical care. Exoskeletons are effective tools for use in pediatric physical therapy.
