Read our Stroke research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing a wearable robotic device called the SHAJA-R exoskeleton that helps support your hip while you walk. The study will compare whether using this device during walking training helps stroke survivors improve their walking speed and endurance better than traditional physical therapy alone. Researchers want to make sure the device is safe, works reliably, and actually helps people walk better.
After a stroke, many people struggle with weakness in their hip muscles, making it hard to walk normally, quickly, or for long distances. This trial exists to see whether robotic assistance during walking therapy can help stroke survivors regain better walking ability than they would get from standard physical therapy alone.

You will attend multiple sessions over several weeks. Half of participants will start with the SHAJA exoskeleton device for six walking training sessions, then switch to standard physical therapy; the other half will do it in reverse order. You'll also complete five separate assessment visits where researchers measure your walking speed, endurance, and muscle strength. The entire study involves both the training sessions with either the device or traditional therapy, plus the assessment appointments.
