Robotic Exoskeleton Walking Aid for Spinal Cord Injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a spinal cord injury (complete or incomplete) that occurred at least 6 months ago
- You are at least 18 years old and able to provide informed consent
- You can attend 9 visits to the research center (1–3 hours each) for training and assessments
- You do not have severe heart problems, uncontrolled blood pressure, or other serious medical conditions that your doctor thinks would be unsafe
- You have no open skin sores, pressure ulcers, or wounds where the exoskeleton would contact your body
- You are able to operate a handheld controller (joystick) with your hands to control the device

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 self-balancing exoskeleton (a wearable robotic device) to help people with spinal cord injury stand and walk. It is for people with injury at or above T6, at least 6 months past injury, and a caregiver who can help during the study visits.
This trial tests a self-balancing exoskeleton (a wearable robotic suit) to help people with spinal cord injuries stand and walk. It is designed for those with injuries at or above the T6 level and looks at how well the device works and how it feels to use.
This trial will test a self-balancing personal exoskeleton for people with spinal cord injuries. It may help you walk again and improve your mobility.
This trial tests a powered exoskeleton called TWIICE Rise to see if it is safe and possible for people with spinal cord injury to use it for walking. It may help if you have some movement or no movement in your legs but need help standing and walking with crutches.
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.
