The EksoUE - rehabilitates upper extremity weakness or paralysis.
This week the Ectron team have been at The Royal Buckinghamshire hospital
in Aylesbury with the new EksoUE
from Ekso Bionics
The EksoUE is a wearable exoskeleton designed to assist patients who suffer from upper extremity paralysis or weakness. EksoUE’s comfortable and simple design provides Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists with a new rehabilitation tool to reduce the gravity load on one or both arms for patients while sitting, standing, or walking.
The EksoUE can be used while sitting, standing, and moving around, which is particularly useful in ADL scenarios. It does not rely on any electronics or batteries needing recharging and can be operated without disruption all day long. It can also be used in conjunction with other rehabilitation technologies

We are so pleased to see our Tecnobody Solution at the neuro-rehab outpatient centre in Neurotherapy Worx. The centre, based near Wigan, started using the D-Wall at the beginning of the year and went on to include the Prokin 252, WalkerView, and Data Server devices. Clinic owner, Sarah Wilkinson's experience with the advanced motion tracking, analysis, and therapy programs of the D-Wall has led her to adopt additional solutions, such as the Prokin 252 for balance and proprioception, and the Walker View for gait assessment and training. This strategy is designed to motivate patients and supply valuable data to the physiotherapy team, potentially reducing recovery time.
