Gait rehab with a wearable robot at home
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 19 and 79 years old.
- You had a stroke (confirmed by brain scan) at least one month ago.
- You have trouble walking due to spasticity or muscle tightness on one side.
- You can sit on the edge of a bed without help and stand for 10 seconds with or without support.
- You can follow simple instructions and understand the study (score 20 or higher on a memory and thinking test).
- You are not pregnant, do not have severe bone or joint problems, and can safely use a wearable robot.

This trial tests a wearable hip robot to help people with stroke walk better at home. It may improve your gait and daily movement.
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 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 a wearable robotic leg brace that helps people with leg weakness practice walking. It aims to see if using the robot improves strength and movement for people recovering from stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint replacement surgery.
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.
