New powered brace aims to improve walking in kids with cerebral palsy
NCT ID NCT05746871
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a device called Agilik, a powered leg brace that helps children with cerebral palsy extend their knees while walking. The goal was to see if it improves gait, endurance, and speed. Only 9 children took part, and the study was stopped early, so the results are not conclusive.

What this could lead to
