About this trial

This clinical trial is enrolling individuals with chronic spinal cord injuries to test whether robotic exoskeleton walking offers health benefits, including decreased pain and spasticity, improvements in bowel and bladder function, decreased body-mass index (BMI), and enhanced well-being. The study will also measure whether using an exoskeleton improves neurological or functional recovery in participants with incomplete injuries, and also whether it improves mobility — increased walking speeds, for longer distances, and across various types of surfaces in community settings. Training will be completed over an 8-week period, consisting of three 1.5 hour walking sessions per week, for a total of 24 walking sessions. Multiple outcome assessments will be done before and after each exoskeleton training, including a follow-up session 10 weeks after the end of training to measure long-term changes.
