Robot-assisted walking therapy for burn and fracture recovery
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether a robotic device that helps you walk can improve movement and function after you've had a severe burn and broken bone in your leg. The robot guides your leg through walking motions while you're healing, and researchers want to see if it helps you regain strength and independence faster.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 19 years or older
- Your burn wound has healed (closed up) after skin grafting or wound dressing
- You had a broken bone in your lower leg/hip that was treated with surgery, pins, or a brace
- You can understand and follow instructions from a therapist during exercise
- You can walk with some help (using a device, another person, or minimal support) but not completely independently

This study tests whether walking with a mobile robot (a device that helps move your legs) can improve your walking ability. It is for people who still have trouble walking more than 6 months after a serious burn on their legs.
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 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 tests whether a robot suit can help older adults walk better after hip fracture surgery. If you are 65 or older and had surgery for a broken hip from a minor fall, you may be able to join.
This trial tests a robot device to help people with leg weakness from stroke, spinal cord injury, or joint surgery improve their walking. It may be a good option if you are medically stable and can work with the robot safely.
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.
