Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: When consent was not obtained from the patient or surrogate. If the lesion is under the tent. If a pacemaker is inserted. If the patient is diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage. The patient does not have the bio-potential signals necessary to operate the HAL medical single joint type. Body size is not suitable for HAL medical single-joint type (body weight >100kg).

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary endpoint in this study was a questionnaire used to assess the sense of exercise ownership.12 The questionnaire consisted of four items with factor loadings from the discomfort factor and six items with factor loadings from the sense of ownership factor. The questionnaire consists of four items with factor loadings from the discomfort factor and six items with factor loadings from the initiative factor, The total score is calculated by correcting the scores of the reversed items. In this study, this questionnaire will be used to conduct evaluations at four time points: pre-intervention, 2 weeks, 6 months, and 12 months after the intervention. The evaluation will be fully explained and self-administered by a physician or occupational therapist who is unaware of the assignment, to minimize evaluation bias. | — |
