Robot-assisted walking training for children and young adults with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether robot-assisted walking training improves movement and mobility in children and young adults with cerebral palsy. It may help strengthen muscles and improve walking ability, which can make daily activities easier.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be between the ages of 3 and 23
- You must have a diagnosis of cerebral palsy
- Your motor function must be at GMFCS level II, III, or IV
- You must be at least 21 cm long in the thigh bone, as confirmed by a doctor
- You must have a recent hip X-ray (within the last 3 months) and get approval from an orthopedic specialist

This study compares three types of physical therapy for children with cerebral palsy: robotic walking training, water therapy, and standard physical therapy. The goal is to see which approach best improves walking and movement.
This trial tests if robot-assisted training helps improve motor skills in children with cerebral palsy who can walk without major aids. It compares them to children without brain injuries.
This study looks at how safely using a pediatric robotic exoskeleton over the long term can improve how children walk. It’s for children ages 3–17 who have certain movement or spine-related conditions and who can meet walking and joint-movement requirements.
This study tests a fun, robot-guided play program to see if it helps children with cerebral palsy be more active. Participating might improve your child's movement and overall well-being.
This trial tests whether walking practice with real-time feedback (“biofeedback”) can improve how people with cerebral palsy move their legs. It’s designed to help with safer, more efficient walking during treadmill training.
This study tests a biofeedback system added to robotic walking training for children with cerebral palsy. The robot helps move the legs while a screen gives real-time feedback, aiming to improve walking ability.
