Background: Children with hemiparesis are commonly prescribed ankle foot orthoses to
help improve gait; however, these orthoses often result in only small and variable changes …

Neurological disorders such as Cerebral Palsy (CP) and spinal cord injury (SCI) adversely
affect the lower-body movement of the pediatric population. Such movements can be …

Several genetic, developmental and neurological disorders can cause various levels of gait
impairment in the pediatric population. Powered lower limb orthoses, or exoskeletons, have …

Cerebral Palsy is the most prevalent cause of gait disorder in childhood, affecting the range
