Richmond, Calif.-based Ekso Bionics Holdings Inc. is launching a clinical science organization, which it is debuting at Rehab Week 2015 in Valencia, Spain. This group will lay the groundwork for the clinical evidence roadmap necessary to become part of Standard of Care treatment. The Kessler Institute and Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, Ill. will present their early findings on outcomes associated with use of the Ekso Bionics GT robotic exoskeleton at the International Neurorehabilitation Symposium to be held June 9-12 also in Valencia.
According to Ekso Bionics, the Ekso Clinical Science Organization (ECSO) will be attended by scientists and clinicians from leading research institutes around the world, with the first meeting taking place on June 8, followed by a second meeting scheduled for early 2016 with an extended scientific network. Developed to define research objectives and initiate necessary studies, ECSO will help to drive broader adoption from rehabilitation centers and ensure Ekso GT robotic exoskeleton is available globally to patients who can benefit from it.
The Ekso GT is a ready-to-wear, battery-powered exoskeleton (a wearable robot) that is strapped over the user’s clothing, designed to enable individuals to achieve mobility, strength, and/or endurance not otherwise possible. It is fashioned for people living with the consequences of stroke, spinal cord injury and other neurological conditions affecting gait.
