About
Dr. Erika Harold is a leading clinician-researcher in stroke rehabilitation, with a focused expertise in implementing robotic-assisted gait training to transform acute inpatient care. Her most-cited work, a 2021 quality improvement study, directly addresses a critical gap in stroke recovery: the insufficient intensity of walking practice provided during the acute phase. By developing and evaluating a protocol for integrating robotic-assisted gait training into standard care, Dr. Harold demonstrated a practical pathway to increase the dose and consistency of gait rehabilitation, moving beyond traditional limitations. This pivotal paper, with 9 citations, serves as a foundational blueprint for hospitals seeking to adopt advanced technology to enhance motor recovery. Her contributions are not merely theoretical; they offer actionable, evidence-based solutions for improving functional outcomes when it matters most. Dr. Harold’s work is essential reading for rehabilitation scientists and clinicians dedicated to closing the gap between recommended practice and real-world care, ultimately helping more stroke survivors regain independent walking.
