[Purpose] To investigate the difference in walking speed of cerebrovascular disease (CVD) patients in the convalescent stage elicited by use of the Honda Walking Assistant Robot (HWAR). [Subjects] Sixteen first onset CVD patients in a hospital convalescence ward. [Methods] Subjects’ walking speed was measured 1 week before using HWAR, after 2 weeks use of HWAR, and 1 week later, after ending use of HWAR, a period of 4 weeks. Subjects were divided into fast and slow walking groups (walking speeds of greater or less than 1 m/s), based on the first assessment, and compared. [Results] Increases in walking speed and step length were not observed in the “fast” group, but they were observed in the “slow” group. [Conclusion] The walking speed before the intervention affected the outcomes of walking training for CVD patients using HWAR, which tended to increase the walking speeds and step lengths of “slow” group subjects.
