First Report of a New Exoskeleton in Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury: FreeGait®
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Exoskeletal robotic therapy for walking. and Conventional exercise therapy for Spinal Cord Injuries and Walking, Difficulty. Completed, enrolled 14 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of exoskeletal robotic therapy and conventional exercise therapy in incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is exoskeletal robotic therapy effective in improving functional ambulation in SCI? * Is exoskeletal robotic therapy effective in enhancing Activities of Daily Living in SCI? Participants treated with either: * Exoskeletal robotic therapy along with conventional exercise therapy, or * Only conventional exercise therapy.
