What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effects of robot-assisted intensive physiotherapy on trunk control, posture, and activities of daily living in individuals with spinal cord injury. A total of 52 participants will be randomly assigned to an experimental group or a control group. Both groups will receive 45-minute treatment sessions 7 days per week for 8 weeks. The experimental group will receive robot-assisted physiotherapy 3 days per week and trunk-focused conventional physiotherapy 4 days per week, whereas the control group will receive trunk-focused conventional physiotherapy 7 days per week. Participants will be evaluated at baseline, at the end of week 4, and at the end of week 8.
