Robotics for Mobility Rehabilitation in MS

Title Prospective, open label, single arm, non-randomized, non-comparative feasibility study of Rex robot assisted rehabilitation exercise to enhance balance, mobility and upper limb function in people with Multiple Sclerosis "RAPPER III - MS Objective The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and safety of the REX Robot when used for rehabilitation with people who have moderate to severe mobility restrictions due to MS. A secondary objective of the study is to explore the acceptability of the device to people with MS and its impact on impairments and functions commonly affected by MS. Study Sponsor Rex Bionics, Plc. Study Device REX Robotic powered exercise system Primary Endpoint • Completion of a transfer, stand, balance and walk rehabilitation session. * Unexpected Serious Adverse Events Secondary Endpoints * Completion of a transfer, stand, balance and walk rehabilitation program over Six-weeks * The Number of approached, screened, and eligible potential participants.
