Robotic exoskeleton for walking after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a robotic exoskeleton (Atalante) to help people who have had a stroke and have trouble walking. It looks at whether using the device early (1–4 months after stroke) can improve the ability to walk again.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your stroke happened between 1 and 4 months ago.
- You need help walking or cannot walk on your own.
- You have health insurance.
- You are willing to sign a consent form.

This trial tests a walking device called an exoskeleton to help people with leg weakness or movement problems. It's designed to see if using the exoskeleton regularly over time can help improve walking or mobility.
This trial tests a “human–machine” leg exoskeleton system to help people with stroke improve standing and walking during rehab. You may be able to participate if you have certain levels of disability and spasticity, can safely stand and walk with help, and don’t have skin, joint, or medical issues that would make training unsafe.
This trial tests whether adding exoskeleton-assisted exercises to standard rehab can help people who push away from their weak side after a right-brain stroke. You may be eligible if you had a first ischemic stroke on the right side within the last 2 weeks to 6 months and have this pushing behavior.
This study tests a self-balancing robotic exoskeleton device designed to help people with spinal cord injuries stand and walk. Researchers will assess whether the device improves mobility and quality of life over nine visits to a research center.
This study tests if a robotic exoskeleton can help people who have had a stroke walk again. You must be between 3 and 8 months post-stroke, able to walk with a cane or walker, and fit certain physical requirements.
This Phase 1 trial tests a robotic exoskeleton device that helps stroke survivors practice walking. It may help you relearn walking safely and see whether the device is workable for your body and needs.
