Study Summary

This trial is designed to study whether a new wearable device and algorithm can help improve the function of the soleus muscle after a stroke.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who can walk at least 10 meters with or without help. Healthy participants should have no neurological issues or past major injuries. Stroke survivors must be stable for over 6 months, able to use a robotic ankle device, and not expecting medication changes for 4 months.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how the soleus muscle in the calf responds during walking after stroke. It uses a powered ankle device and control algorithm on a treadmill to see if it can improve muscle response and gait speed by conditioning the muscles during stance phase.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There are no specific side effects mentioned, but participants may experience discomfort from wearing the robotic device or fatigue from treadmill walking exercises.
