Robotic leg braces get smarter: NIH tests new ways to help kids walk
NCT ID NCT06998134
Summary
This study is exploring new ways to control robotic leg braces (exoskeletons) to help children and young adults with conditions like cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy walk better in different daily situations. Researchers are testing how different control settings work during activities like walking on treadmills, going up ramps, and navigating obstacle courses. The goal is to gather information to improve how these devices assist with movement across various real-world tasks.
