Robotic and computer rehab for walking after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study uses robotic equipment and computer modeling to create a personalized rehabilitation program. Researchers are looking for healthy adults and adults who have had a stroke more than 6 months ago to see if these tools can improve walking.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You can speak and understand English.
- You weigh 250 pounds or less.
- Your resting heart rate is between 60 and 100 beats per minute, and your blood pressure is within the allowed range (90/60 to 140/90 for healthy people, or 90/60 to 160/90 for stroke survivors).
- You either have not had a stroke (Group A) OR you had a single stroke more than 6 months ago and can walk for 15 minutes without help (Group B).
- You have no serious heart or lung problems, no recent heart surgery or uncontrolled irregular heartbeat, and no major bone or joint problems that limit walking.

This trial tests whether early, robot-assisted walking training can help people recovering from a stroke improve their ability to walk. It uses a wearable robotic exoskeleton to support your body and guide your legs during practice.
This trial tests if a special robot suit can help people with chronic stroke improve their walking. If you had a stroke 6 months to 3 years ago and can walk a little with help, you may be able to join.
This study tests if a wearable robotic leg brace (an exoskeleton) can help people who have had a stroke walk better. It is for stroke survivors who are at least 6 months past their stroke and can already walk without help from another person.
This study is testing whether a wearable robotic leg device can help stroke survivors improve their walking and leg function during rehabilitation. If you have had a stroke and can already stand and walk a little, this robot suit may help you regain more strength and mobility.
This trial tests whether using a wearable robotic device at home can improve walking ability in people who have had a stroke. If you have trouble walking due to a stroke, this study may help you regain strength and mobility.
This trial uses a mobile brain and body imaging system to help improve walking with a robotic exoskeleton in people who have had a stroke. It could help you walk better during overground gait training.
