Streszczenie

Praca ta traktuje o egzoszkieletach, swego rodzaju urządzeniach, które wkładającemu je na siebie człowiekowi umożliwiają wykonywanie dotychczas niemożliwych dla niego czynności lub usprawniają te, które potrafi. Opisano w niej ich zalety oraz wady poparte przykładami prac opisującymi użycie i użyteczność szkieletów zewnętrznych w różnych obszarach medycyny. Przeanalizowane i przedstawione artykuły naukowe pochodzą z baz danych PubMed oraz Embase. Po przestudiowaniu literatury nasuwające się wnioski są optymistyczne. Oparte bowiem na skuteczności prowadzonych eksperymentów zdają się dawać zielone światło dla szerszego zastosowania tej technologii. Szczególne jej zastosowanie widać we wspomaganiu czynności ruchowych u pacjentów w tej sferze niedomagających oraz u pracowników fizycznych. Istniejące mankamenty wychwytywane w czasie badań prowokują do zachowania zdrowej dozy sceptycyzmu połączonej z chęcią dalszego rozwoju i doskonalenia. Idea wdrożenia tej technologii do świata medycyny jest trafna i entuzjastycznie przyjmowana. Od nowocześniejszych sprzętów przyszłości oczekuje się eliminacji istniejących obecnie niedociągnięć oraz ich szerszego dostępu aby służyć mogły większej niż obecnie części populacji.

This work deals with exoskeletons, a kind of device that, when put on, enables a person to perform activities previously impossible for him or improve those he can. It describes their advantages and disadvantages supported by examples of works describing the use and utility of exoskeletons in various areas of medicine. The scientific articles analyzed and presented are from PubMed and Embase databases. After studying the literature, the conclusions that emerge are optimistic. This is because, based on the effectiveness of the experiments conducted, they seem to give a green light for the wider application of this technology. Its particular application can be seen in the support of motor activities in patients who are deficient in this sphere and in manual workers. Existing shortcomings picked up during the research provoke a healthy dose of skepticism combined with a desire for further development and improvement. The idea of implementing this technology into the medical world is apt and enthusiastically welcomed. The more modern equipment of the future is expected to address current shortcomings and to be more widely available to serve a larger proportion of the population than is currently the case.
