About
Craig Lockwood is a prominent health researcher whose work sits at the intersection of rehabilitation medicine, health economics, and evidence synthesis methodology. He is best known for his rigorous systematic reviews examining the effectiveness and cost of robotic-assisted rehabilitation for adult stroke patients — a growing area of clinical importance given stroke's status as a leading cause of long-term disability worldwide. His landmark 2017 systematic review on robotic rehabilitation for mobility and functional ability has accumulated 122 citations, establishing it as a key reference for clinicians and policymakers evaluating emerging rehabilitation technologies. Complementing this, his 2019 economic cost review (68 citations) provides hospitals with critical comparative cost data, bridging the gap between clinical efficacy and real-world implementation. Lockwood has also made meaningful methodological contributions, including a widely referenced guide to meta-regression for handling heterogeneity in systematic reviews. His qualitative investigation into clinician perspectives on adopting robotic stroke therapy further demonstrates his commitment to translating research into practice. Spanning stroke rehabilitation, surgical oncology, and systematic review methodology, Lockwood's body of work reflects a researcher dedicated to advancing evidence-based healthcare through both rigorous synthesis and practical application.
