Improving Mobility Via Robotic Exoskeletons in Local Rehabilitation Settings in Singapore

About this trial

This trial is enrolling individuals with spinal cord injuries to test the effect on walking ability of a robotic exoskeleton, an externally worn powered robotic device to assist movement. The device will be tested in both in and outpatient rehabilitation settings. If included, participants will receive 12 sessions of either: 1) 30 minute robotic exoskeleton training and a 15-30 minute conventional physiotherapy session; or 2) conventional physiotherapy only (for individuals who decline participation in robotic exoskeleton group). This will be followed by individualized physiotherapy sessions 1 to 5 times per week. Final testing of walking ability will be performed after 6 months.
