What is the ReWalk?
MossRehab will soon be the exclusive U.S. clinical trial site for a new assistive device called the ReWalk. The ReWalk is a motorized exoskeleton suit that enables patients with lower limb disabilities to independently engage in ambulatory activities, including standing, walking and in some cases climbing stairs. The ReWalk consists of a lightweight wearable brace support suit, motorized joints, rechargeable batteries, an array of sensors and a computer-based control system. Worn around the legs, chest and back, it fits closely to the body on top of everday clothing. Patient stability during ambulation is supported by concurrent use of crutches. |
