Study Summary

The overall goal of this project is to develop modular, lower-limb, powered orthoses that fit to user-specific weakened joints and control force/torque in a manner that enhances voluntary motion in broad patient populations. This project aims to establish feasibility of assisting different populations with these modular powered orthoses. The investigators hypothesize that assisting lower-limb musculature with modular powered orthoses will improve 1) lifting/lowering posture in able-bodied subjects and 2) functional outcomes in elderly subjects.

Primary Outcome

For each orthosis module tested, electromyography (EMG) readings will be normalized per-muscle by the peak EMG observed during the no-orthosis condition, and then averaged over the cycle and across repetitions to obtain "normalized exertion" values. Performance will be assessed by the difference between the orthosis condition and no-orthosis condition, averaging across tasks and muscles measured for the joint module.
