Safety and Feasibility of TWIICE Rise
About this trial
This pilot trial is enrolling 15 individuals with chronic spinal cord injuries to test the safety and feasibility of two versions of the TWIICE Rise, a lower-limb exoskeleton designed to enhance walking function. An exoskeleton is an externally worn powered robotic device to assist movement. If included, participants will undergo a training program with the exoskeleton. In the first phase, 5 participants will undergo 6 sessions for up to 6 weeks using TWIICE Rise 0 in a clinical setting. In the second phase, 10 participants will undergo 24 sessions for up to 20 weeks using an improved device, TWIICE Rise 1, in different settings (clinic, home, and community environment). Final assessment of safety and feasibility will be done after up to 26 weeks.
