Brain scans could predict stroke recovery during robotic walks
NCT ID NCT07510633
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks for brain signals that can track how well stroke patients recover their ability to walk. Researchers will use a mobile brain scanner while patients walk with a robotic device. The goal is to find markers that could help doctors personalize therapy and predict recovery. About 30 adults who have had a stroke and can walk with some help will take part.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age ≥18 years old * Stroke patients with different etiology: ischemic or hemorrhagic * Able to walk independently, eventually with aids/orthosis (FAC\>2) * Able to give the informed consent and to comprehend the instructions necessary to complete the task * Subject's anthropometric parameters adequate to wear the exoskeleton; * Body weight \< 90 kg; * Height 150 ÷ 192 cm; * Thigh lenght: 355 ÷ 475 mm; * Calf lenght: 405 ÷ 485 mm; * Hip width : 690 ÷ 990 mm; Exclusion Criteria: * Incapacity to give the informed consent and understand the tasks required * Fixed contracture at lower limbs that limits the use of the exoskeleton * Incapacity to walk independently (FAC\<=2) * Subject's anthropometric parameters not adequate to wear the exoskeleton
