Spinal Cord Injuries Clinical Trials

87 studies are recruiting for spinal cord injuries in the United States right now. Each one is listed on ClinicalTrials.gov, the public registry the research teams themselves file with. TrialBoost is not a doctor, a research site, or a study sponsor: the research team decides who takes part.

5. Seated Balance Using the Indego™

   Exoskeleton-assisted walking (EAW) provides a new mobility option and appears to have potential therapeutic benefits for persons with SCI. However, present day technology is not sufficient to replace the wheelchair. During EAW, users stand upright, maintain static and dynamic balance by actively an…
