Walking with a robotic suit for brain recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests if walking with a robotic exoskeleton (a device that supports your legs) can help improve arousal and awareness in people recovering from a disorder of consciousness. It's for people already in hospital rehab.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are currently staying in the hospital for rehabilitation (inpatient rehab).
- You have a disorder of consciousness (like a coma or a minimally conscious state).
- You are able to follow simple commands some of the time.
- You can walk with help from the robotic exoskeleton (you don't need to walk on your own).

This trial tests if walking with a robotic exoskeleton can help people with brain injuries who are in a coma or minimally conscious state become more responsive. It takes place in a hospital during early recovery.
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 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 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 trial studies whether assisted walking training with an exoskeleton can improve recovery after stroke, especially for walking and daily function. You may be offered therapy once you are medically stable, able to stand, and able to participate safely.
