Robotics in Cardiac Rehabilitation: A Systematic Review
Author(s): Nukarisakoma Bilselia*
This systematic review examines the role of robotic technology in enhancing Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) programs. It synthesizes evidence from
various studies on the application of robotic systems, such as exoskeletons and robotic trainers, in improving cardiovascular fitness, physical
function, and overall quality of life in patients undergoing CR. The review includes randomized controlled trials and observational studies that
assess the efficacy of robotic-assisted interventions compared to traditional CR methods. Findings indicate that robotic systems can provide
controlled, adaptable, and repetitive exercises, potentially leading to significant improvements in rehabilitation outcomes. However, challenges
such as high costs, technical complexity, and the need for further long-term studies are identified. The review highlights the potential benefits of
