INTERROGAIT will disentangle the role of Physical Therapist - Patient (Pht-Pt) interaction in robotic assisted gait rehabilitation in spinal cord injury patients. The study is structured as a single blind randomized controlled trial with two arms, in which effects of different Pht-Pt interaction levels will be assessed on the ongoing robotic treatment with the Lokomat device. The main hypothesis is that when Pht-Pt interaction is maximized (experimental group), this will allow to better rehabilitation outcome with respect to a minimun level of Pht-Pt interaction (control group).
