Innovation meets Neurorehab with EksoUE
EksoUE is a wearable, upper-extremity exoskeleton designed to assist a patient’s affected shoulder and arm during rehabilitation. With EksoUE, patients can achieve rehab sessions with a higher dosage, more intense therapy, and a wider active range of motion.
Features
180° OF ASSISTED MOTION
Allows the patient to exercise a wider active range of motion with assistance in all planes.MANUAL THERAPY ACCESS
Provides access to shoulder joint and scapula to help therapists facilitate movement.MULTIFACETED USE CASES
Can be used while sitting, standing, and moving around.NATURAL MOVEMENT PATTERN
Supports the patient’s arm with minimal interference, allowing for a more natural motion than other devices or traditional therapy.FULLY-MECHANICAL OPERATION
Spring-powered operation allows for continuous use without recharging, since there is no battery.INCREASED WORKLOAD
Patients can tolerate higher therapy dosage for longer with EksoUE assistance.ADAPTABLE ERGONOMICS & ASSISTANCE
Easily reconfigured for a range of force levels and sizes, adaptive to a wide range of patients and goals.QUICKLY SET UP AND USE
Simple to set up and use, with a self-guided digital training module.GET A DEMO

 TESTIMONIALS“To take my hands off of a patient and allow them to be a little bit more functional without me, it’s giving them empowerment.” Jessica Wilchinski, OT Occupational Therapist, Johns Hopkins Medical  TESTIMONIALS“You can change the parameters within Ekso allowing for more, less, or no resistance… it is revolutionary.” Amit Mehta, PT, DPT, MBA Executive Director of Outpatient Rehab Services, University Health System |
EksoUE FAQs
Ekso is the only upper extremity exoskeleton designed specifically by clinicians, for clinicians. It features early mobility tools for a variety of activities of daily living or gaming activities. Request a demo to learn more about how EksoUE can benefit your practice.
EksoUE is currently available exclusively in certified rehabilitation centers. Find a center near you with our interactive map or contact Customer Relations.
The training consists of a self-guided online training course consisting of learning modules training on both able-bodied and patient driven practice opportunities.
EksoUE can be donned in a seated or standing position. EksoUE can be worn in many therapy environments and is not tethered to static equipment, making it ideal for functional activities of daily living or gaming activities.
The patient must be able to actively achieve at least 20 degrees of active shoulder flexion in order to benefit from the device.
Patients who have poor skin integrity in areas in contact with the device, severe upper extremity pain with movement, significant shoulder impingement resulting in pain, and unresolved deep vein thrombosis in the upper extremity should NOT utilize EksoUE.
Patients need to be cleared for safe, functional active range of motion. Their upper and lower arm segment lengths need to fit within the range of EksoUE adjustability. The patient must be able to initiate shoulder motion (generally 2-/5 shoulder strength with greater or equal to 20 degrees of active shoulder flexion).
EksoUE is intended for those patients with impaired upper-extremity function due to, but not limited to, CVA, SCI, MS, Guillain’ Barre, Brachial Plexus injuries, and orthopedic injuries.
EksoUE has interchangeable springs, allowing for different powered active assisted function movement, based on the patient’s strength, endurance, and weight of their extremity. The patient wears the device to participate in occupational or physical therapy sessions to provide active assist/increased active range of motion in many planes, reduce gravitational forces, allow for longer activity sessions, and lead to more high intensity sessions.
EksoUE is a non-actuated upper extremity exoskeleton powered by spring forces and active assistance by the patient. Watch our video to learn more.
