Walking rehabilitation with a robotic exoskeleton
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 60 years old
- You have leg weakness from a stroke, incomplete spinal cord injury (T12 or below), or a recent knee/hip replacement
- You can stand and follow instructions
- You weigh 100 kg (about 220 pounds) or less
- Your doctor confirms you are medically able to use an exoskeleton safely

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 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 “human–machine” leg exoskeleton system to help people with stroke improve standing and walking during rehab. You may be able to participate if you have certain levels of disability and spasticity, can safely stand and walk with help, and don’t have skin, joint, or medical issues that would make training unsafe.
This study tests a robotic device (SHAJA-R exoskeleton) that helps move your hips during walking. It is for people who have had a stroke at least 3 months ago and still have some trouble walking, but can walk a little with or without help.
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 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.
