About this trial
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate and compare different robotic exoskeletons (RE) and identify which is most appropriate for gait training for each patient based off their specific needs. This will help guide clinicians in prescribing the appropriate RE for rehabilitation.
Eligibility criteria
Qualifiers
Stroke survivors 3 - 8 months from a recent stroke.
Age: 50 - 80 years
Unilateral hemiparesis
Medical clearance by the Medical Director
Disqualifiers
Any medical issue that precludes full weight-bearing and ambulation (e.g. orthopedic injuries, pain, severe spasticity).
Skin issues that would prevent wearing the device.
Pre-existing condition that caused exercise intolerance (documented uncontrolled hypertension, coronary artery disease, cardiac arrhythmia, or congestive heart failure).
Hospitalization for heart attack, heart surgery, or acute heart failure within 3 months of enrollment in the study.
