Multiple Sclerosis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Pilot Study of Powered Exoskeleton Use for Gait Rehabilitation in Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis
The investigator plans to test the use of the Ekso Bionics® Gait Training (Ekso GT™) exoskeleton for gait training in MS patients. The device will solely be used in the clinic under direct supervision from a physical therapist. This is a small PI-initiated uncontrolled pilot study to gather safety and feasibility data on the exoskeleton in individuals with MS and walking impairment.
Powered exoskeletons are approved by the FDA to assist in the rehabilitation of persons with spinal cord injury and post-stroke hemiplegia. The investigator is aware of only one pilot study of a powered exoskeleton (ReWalk®) in multiple sclerosis (MS) which demonstrated some improvements in sitting, standing and walking posture when used consistently. The investigator is not aware of any study of the Ekso GT™ exoskeleton in MS. This is a feasibility and safety study of using the Ekso GT™ exoskeleton for gait training in patients with relapsing or progressive MS and severe mobility limitations (EDSS 5-5 - 7.5). Preliminary efficacy outcomes on gait and walking will also be collected for the purpose of designing a larger clinical trial of the Ekso GT™ exoskeleton for gait training in patients with MS. ;
