About this study

The randomized study (in Phase II of the U44) compares the efficacy and durability of 9 weeks (18 sessions) of robot-assisted physical therapy (PTR) versus physical therapy (PT) alone on foot drop as assessed by gait biomechanics (ankle angle at initial contact, peak swing ankle angle, number of heel-first strikes - % total steps, gait velocity) and blinded clinician assessment (dorsiflexion active range of motion, ankle muscle strength, assistive device needs).
