Brief Summary

Studies suggest that older adults undergoing inpatient rehabilitation have relatively low levels of physical activity. Moreover, people with lower limb orthopedic conditions undergoing inpatient rehabilitation may be particularly vulnerable to the consequences of low physical activity because of the mobility limitations. The study focuses on examining the feasibility of incorporating robotic system for upper body physical training of people with lower limb orthopedic condition undergoing inpatient rehabilitation. Using robotic coaches can be a complementary method to promote the participation and motivation of people with lower limb orthopedic conditions undergoing inpatient rehabilitation. Aims: The overall aim of the study is to assess the user experience and feasibility of incorporating robotic system for upper body physical training of people with lower limb orthopedic injury/condition undergoing inpatient rehabilitation. Our specific aims are: 1. To assess the acceptability and suitability of the training (i.e., training attendance and engagement; adherence to training protocol; time on task; satisfaction and enjoyment of the training) 2. To document unexpected adverse events during training. 3. To assess the resources and ability to manage and implement the training (i.e., administrative capacity, technology and equipment needs and training).

Eligibility Criteria
