Bumin Hospital, a preliminary study on the introduction of wearable robot rehabilitation system

Jan 09, 2025

Seoul Bumin Hospital (Hospital Director Ha Yong-chan) will conduct preliminary research to provide customized rehabilitation treatment using advanced walking rehabilitation robots.

Angelobotics' rehabilitation robot can be applied to stroke, spinal cord injury, Parkinson's disease, and other diseases that cause walking disabilities, and is a state-of-the-art rehabilitation treatment device that draws participation in training with intention identification technology composed of 11 sensors.

Bumin Hospital, along with Angel Robotics Co., Ltd., will apply the program for two weeks to 30 patients who need rehabilitation after joint and spinal surgery to determine whether to introduce robot rehabilitation services.




It is a method of applying two types of robots according to the patient's condition after treatment by a rehabilitation medicine specialist so that patients with walking disabilities experience and learn normal walking.

Engellex M20, a demonstration test held at Bumin Hospital in Seoul, is a walking rehabilitation training robot that helps with walking training and stair climbing training. In addition, Suit H10 is a robotic rehabilitation device that assists the function of hip joints to enable smooth walking and daily life.

In particular, wearable robots are reported to have a data function that can quantitatively analyze the wearer's walking characteristics and patterns, which has the effect of patients checking their rehabilitation progress and actively participating in treatment.




Ha Yong-chan, director of the Seoul Bumin Hospital, said, `We are reviewing the application of rehabilitation services using wearable robots through research by medical staff and in-depth user interviews.'"We will do our best to increase customer satisfaction by introducing various advanced programs that will help patients return to their daily lives quickly." he said.
