Early robotic walking training after stroke
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 85 years old.
- You have had any type of stroke and are in the early recovery stages.
- Your doctor says you are medically stable to participate.
- You are receiving rehab at Baylor Scott & White Institute for Rehabilitation (BSWIR).
- You have a goal to walk again and are able to manage bladder and bowel needs (or have a plan for that).
- Your body size fits the robotic exoskeleton limits (the device will be checked for fit).
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

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 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.
This study tests whether a robot-assisted walking training program can help people who recently had a stroke improve their walking ability. It is for people in the early recovery phase (1 to 3 months after stroke) who already have moderate balance.
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 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 study tests a robotic device (SHAJA-R exoskeleton) that helps move your hips during walking. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 3 months ago and still have some trouble walking, but can walk a little with or without help.
