First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study from the University of Calgary is testing a robotic gait trainer called the Trexo in 50 people who have trouble walking due to conditions like cerebral palsy. Researchers want to understand how different settings on the robot (like endurance vs. strength mode) affect heart rate, steps taken, brain activity, and fatigue. The goal is to learn how to best use these devices to improve rehabilitation.
