Robotic Gait Training
Subjects will be randomized to one of 4 gait training group. The duration of treatment will span across their inpatient rehabilitation length of stay after providing informed consent to their 9 months post-SCI visit in the outpatient rehabilitation setting. Subjects will wear an exoskeleton device and receive robotic gait training (RGT) with a physical therapist during a 45-minutes inpatient rehabilitation session. Subjects will complete 24 robotic gait training sessions over different durations during outpatient rehabilitation. Subjects will also complete a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) assessment and questionnaires about walking and function. Subjects will be asked to wear an activity monitor to measure their activity.
