Robotic leg braces aim to keep Parkinson's patients on their feet

NCT ID NCT06028529

Summary

This study is testing a new wearable device called an exoskeleton to see if it's safe and helpful for people with Parkinson's disease. The device straps to the legs and provides support to improve walking and balance, with the goal of reducing falls. Over eight weeks, 30 participants will use the exoskeleton during supervised walking sessions to see if it helps them move more safely and independently.
