Exoskeletons in MS rehabilitation are ready for widespread use in clinical practice: Commentary.

Abstract

Rehabilitation has been recognized as the best, and perhaps only way to restore function in persons with MS.1 Recently, the application of robotic exoskeletons in MS rehabilitation has garnered much attention, as this approach is associated with a host of advantages relative to manual rehabilitation. Thus, the current controversy addresses whether or not robotic exoskeletons are ready for widespread use in clinical practice settings among persons with MS.
