FDA Clears ReWalk Exoskeleton for Use on Stairs and Curbs

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently cleared the ReWalk exoskeleton for use on stairs and curbs, making it the first of its kind to receive such clearance. The ReWalk is a motorized, robotic exoskeleton that is designed to help people with lower-limb disabilities walk. The device is worn like a backpack and uses motors and sensors to help the user move their legs.

The FDA’s clearance of the ReWalk for use on stairs and curbs is a major milestone for those with lower-limb disabilities. This clearance allows users to move more freely and independently, as they can now access areas that were previously inaccessible. The ReWalk is designed to be used both indoors and outdoors, and can be used to climb stairs, cross curbs, and navigate uneven terrain.

The ReWalk is a significant advancement in the field of assistive technology. It provides users with increased mobility and independence, allowing them to participate in activities that were previously out of reach. The device also offers a range of health benefits, including improved cardiovascular fitness, increased muscle strength, and improved balance.

The ReWalk is an exciting development for those with lower-limb disabilities. It provides users with greater freedom and independence, allowing them to access areas that were previously inaccessible. The FDA’s clearance of the ReWalk for use on stairs and curbs is an important step forward in the field of assistive technology, and will no doubt benefit many people with lower-limb disabilities.
