Robot ankle brace could make walking easier for stroke survivors
NCT ID NCT07179627
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a powered ankle exoskeleton—a robotic brace—to see if it can help people who have had a stroke walk with less effort. About 15 stroke survivors will walk on a treadmill and over ground with the device. Researchers will measure how much energy they use and how well the brace predicts their ankle movements.
