After studies The Kessler Foundation can confirm that they find the suit safe for stroke victime...This is great news for the company and for stroke victims too....Im presuming the suit will be equally popular for gait training in other areas too. As we already know it is well known with SCI circles and i would imagine that brain injured individuals will benefit too!

RICHMOND, Calif., Sept. 18, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:EKSO), a robotic exoskeleton company, today announced new findings from a feasibility study conducted by Kessler Foundation, which reported that eight stroke patients who were prescribed gait training during inpatient rehabilitation training, safely increased their cadence (steps per minute) after six weeks of rehabilitation with the assistance of the Ekso™ GT robotic exoskeleton. The patients were gait trained using the Ekso device for 25% of their total physical therapy time. Average cadence with the Ekso robotic exoskeleton was 17.1 at initial session, which increased to 27.67 by the final session.
