ZEPU-2000 Limb Rehabilitation Trainer Study (ZEPU2000RCT)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the ZEPU-2000A, ZEPU-2000D and ZEPU-2000E robotic rehabilitation trainers help people with weakness or movement problems in their arms and legs. These devices are used to guide repeated arm and leg movements as part of rehabilitation therapy. The study will also look at whether the devices are safe to use. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is training with the ZEPU-2000 devices safe, and how well do patients tolerate and stick with the training sessions? Does adding robotic training to usual rehabilitation improve muscle strength, joint movement, balance, walking, and daily function more than usual rehabilitation alone? Researchers will compare a group receiving robotic-assisted rehabilitation plus usual care to a group receiving usual rehabilitation care alone, to see whether the robotic devices provide added benefit. Participants will: Be adults aged 18-60 with arm and/or leg movement problems caused by stroke, incomplete spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, or an orthopedic condition Attend training sessions 3 times a week for 12 weeks (about 36 sessions total), each lasting approximately 45 minutes Undergo assessments of strength, movement, balance, and daily function at the start of the study and every 2 weeks throughout the 12-week period Be monitored for any side effects or safety concerns, such as skin irritation, falls, or discomfort, at every session

Transcutaneous Spinal Cord Stimulation (tSCS) During Assisted Cycling Training for Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation works to improve lower limb motor function in adults with incomplete spinal cord injury. It will also learn about the safety of transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation when combined with assisted cycling training. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation while training with assisted cycling improve lower limb motor function? Does transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation while training with assisted cycling reduce muscle spasms or improve bladder or bowel function? Researchers will compare transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation to a sham (a look-alike stimulation that does not deliver therapeutic electrical current) to see if transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation during assisted cycling improves motor function in people with incomplete spinal cord injury. Participants will: Participate in the training program with assisted cycling. Receive active stimulation or placebo stimulation during this training. Undergo motor function assessments, and be monitored about muscle spasms, bladder and bowel function and side effects. The study will include 40 participants with incomplete spinal cord injury with less than 12 months since injury.

Effect of Hybrid Functional Electrical Stimulation and Augmented Reality-Based Gait Training on Gait Parameters Among Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury Patients

The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether combining Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES) with Augmented Reality (AR)-based gait training can improve walking ability in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). The study aims to identify the most effective rehabilitation approach for enhancing gait performance and functional independence among these patients. In this study, participants will include: * Adults aged 18-45 years * Diagnosed with incomplete spinal cord injury (ASIA Impairment Scale grades C or D) * Neurological level of injury between T10 and L2 * Medically stable and able to walk with or without assistive devices * Cognitively intact and capable of providing informed consent Exclusion Criteria: * Severe spasticity or contractures in the lower limbs * Significant pain or joint instability * Other neurological or musculoskeletal disorders (e.g., stroke, multiple sclerosis) * Recent lower limb fractures or orthopedic surgeries * Cardiovascular instability or open skin lesions Two treatment groups will be formed: Group A and Group B. * Group A will receive Hybrid FES-AR gait training, which combines electrical stimulation of muscles with visual, task-specific feedback provided through augmented reality. * Group B will receive conventional gait training, which includes standard physiotherapy methods such as strength, balance, and mobility exercises without FES or AR. Both interventions will be delivered over 12 weeks, with 3 sessions per week, each lasting approximately 40 minutes. Baseline assessments will be conducted before starting therapy, followed by evaluations at 6 weeks and 12 weeks. The outcome measures will include improvements in gait speed, step length, stride length, cadence, and gait symmetry, using validated clinical tools such as the JAKC Observational Gait Analysis, Walking Index for Spinal Cord Injury II (WISCI II), and the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA). This study seeks to determine whether the hybrid approach (FES + AR) leads to greater improvement in walking ability compared to traditional gait training. The findings may help guide future rehabilitation strategies and support the integration of technology-based interventions into spinal cord injury management.
