The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of acute phase hybrid assistive limb (HAL) rehabilitation training for @entity1 after @entity64 by measuring the difference in the severity of @entity912 . Fifty-three @entity64 @entity1 were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. HAL training was administered about twice per week, and the mean number of sessions was 3.9    2.7. The walking training was performed on a treadmill with individually adjustable body weight support and speed and there was a 10-m walk test (10MWT) before and after each session. Assessment at baseline and at endpoint consisted of the Glasgow @entity772 Scale (GCS), Revised Hasegawa's @entity303 Scale (HDS-R), Brunnstrom stage ( @entity4375 ), Functional Independence Measure (FIM), Barthel index (BI), and 10MWT. We measured these assessments at the first walking training session and at the end of the final training session without the HAL. To evaluate the feasibility of training with the HAL, the outcome measures of BI, FIM, and speed and number of steps of 10MWT were compared before and after training using a paired Wilcoxon's signed-rank test in different @entity4375 . Except for @entity4375 IV, the @entity4375 III or higher subgroups displayed significant amelioration in BI, and the @entity4375 III subgroup displayed significant amelioration in FIM. The @entity4375 V and VI subgroups displayed significant amelioration in 10-m walking speed and steps. In acute phase rehabilitation after @entity64 , it is thought that the HAL is more effective for @entity1 with less lower-limb @entity912 , such as @entity4375 III or higher.
