About this trial

This trial is enrolling individuals with spinal cord injuries to test the safety and usability of an exoskeleton (STELO). An exoskeleton is an externally worn powered device to assist movement. The modular STELO device can be personalized for the specific functional needs of each user. If included, participants will use the exoskeleton for nine rehabilitation sessions over a 6 week period. The trial will measure heart rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, pain, and walking function throughout the study period.
