Summary

This study tests whether a robotic leg brace (exoskeleton) can improve walking and daily function in 50 stroke survivors during inpatient rehab. Participants will use the device in therapy sessions, and researchers will measure changes in mobility, muscle stiffness, and independence. The goal is to see if this high-tech tool leads to better recovery than standard therapy alone.
