Adaptive Hip Exoskeleton for Stroke Gait Enhancement

Sponsor: Georgia Institute of Technology

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

This work will focus on new algorithms for robotic exoskeletons and testing these in human subject tests. Individuals who have previously had a stroke will walk while wearing a robotic exoskeleton on a specialized treadmill as well as during other movement tasks (e.g. over ground, stairs, ramps). The study will compare the performance of the advanced algorithm with not using the device to determine the clinical benefit.

Interventions

DEVICE

Hip exoskeleton

The intervention is an experimental robotic hip exoskeleton in a powered state providing assistance to the user that has been previously developed by the team. It is used to improve walking gait performance.

OTHER

Baseline

The intervention will serve as a baseline where participants will be asked to perform the tasks without wearing a hip exoskeleton.
