Pivotal clinical trial achieved primary endpoint: Use of InTandemTM neurorehabilitation system resulted in a clinically meaningful and significant increase in walking speed for stroke survivors Compared to an Active Control, individuals randomized to InTandem were three times more likely to be responders Nearly 800,000 Americans experience a stroke each year, making it a leading cause […]
(1/8/24, ReachMD) Expert Quote: “Because we don’t really understand freezing, we don’t really know why this approach works so well,” said Ellis. “But this work suggests the potential benefits of a ‘bottom-up’ rather than ‘top-down’ solution to treating gait freezing. We see that restoring almost-normal biomechanics alters the peripheral dynamics of gait and may influence […]
(1/8/24, Institution of Mechanical Engineers) Expert Quote: The symptom is treated with a range of pharmacological, surgical and behavioural therapies – “none of which are particularly effective”, the researchers said. Their work demonstrates the potential of soft robotics to treat the frustrating and potentially dangerous symptom instead. It could allow people living with the disease […]
