Evaluating the effects of a single session of robotic gait training with Trexo

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to assess the impacts of a single session of robotic gait training using the Trexo device on individuals with physical disabilities, particularly those with cerebral palsy or other developmental disabilities. The research will explore how different settings of the Trexo robotic gait trainer affect various outcomes such as physical activity, walking ability, brain activity, spasticity, and fatigue. Participants will first undergo a fitting and familiarization session with the device before engaging in follow-up sessions to evaluate the effects of different training modes.
