First seen Jan 31, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 15 times

Summary

This study tested whether combining a Botox injection with a robotic walking exoskeleton helps stroke survivors with a stiff knee walk more easily. Thirty adults who had a stroke at least 3 months ago took part. Researchers measured changes in knee movement and walking speed to see if the combination worked better than either treatment alone.
