Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Physical Therapy - Department of Physical Therapy for Neurolomuseular & Neurology Summary: Background: Assistive devices are items which allow people with spinal cord injury disabilities to be able to live a healthy, productive and dignified life. Objective: systematically review the studies that assessed the effectiveness of Assistive Devices on Gait in Patients with incomplete Spinal Cord Injury. Methods: Studies were identified from January 2010 to February 2021 by electronic search using PubMed, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Google Scholar and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (Pedro). They were reviewed if they were randomized control trials focused on effectiveness of Assistive Devices on Gait in Patients in age more than 18 years with incomplete Spinal Cord Injury being published in English. The primary outcome measure Anyone/all/some of these criteria used: a) (6MWT),b)(LEMS) ,c)(10MWT), and secondary:(BBS).Data was extracted from the included studies and its methodological quality was evaluated using PEDro scale. Modified sacketts scale was used to determine the level of evidence for each outcome. Results: Eight studies were identified with good quality methodology. Descriptive analysis was applied for three studies. Statistically suppose that no significant difference of Assistive Devices on Gait in Patients with incomplete Spinal Cord Injury compared with traditional physical therapy. That supported the use of assistive devices for those patients and meta-analysis was applied for five studies. There was no significant difference (P= 0.97; P>0.05) in overall effect between experimental group and control group in speed, endurance, balance and strength. There is level II evidence that support the use of assistive device as a method to be able to live a healthy, productive and dignified life. Conclusion: The current level of evidence supposed that assistive robotic devices have no significant difference on Gait in patient with incomplete spinal cord injury in comparison with other traditional methods, but has good effect as others. We need more clinical trials to have more useful systemic review
