Robotic leg brace for stroke recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a motorized leg brace that helps people walk. It first checks the device in healthy adults, then tests it in people who have had a stroke and have trouble walking, to see if it improves their gait.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be a healthy adult with no walking or balance problems, or
- You must have had a stroke and still have weakness on one side of your body that affects how you walk.
- You must be medically stable and able to take part in physical training.
- You must be able to follow instructions and tell the study team if something hurts.
- You must not have other conditions like Parkinson's or MS that also affect walking.
- You must not have skin sores or open wounds on your legs where the brace would touch.

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 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 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 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 study tests a robotic arm brace (exoskeleton) to help people who recently had a stroke and have trouble moving their arm. The goal is to see if the device can improve arm movement and daily function.
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.
