Summary
This study tests whether a wearable robot can help people who recently had a stroke recover movement in their legs and improve balance and walking. The robot provides intensive therapy to the ankle, which is often affected. The trial involves 140 participants who had a stroke within the past year and have leg weakness. The goal is to see if this approach works better than standard therapy.
