Brief Summary: Prospective, international, multi-center, open-labeled, randomized, controlled cross-over trial to evaluate effectiveness and benefits in patients with lower limb impairment in activities of daily living comparing the C-Brace microprocessor-controlled stance and swing orthosis to standard of care use of knee ankle foot orthosis/stance control orthoses
Detailed Description: After obtaining informed consent, patients will be screened. For subjects fulfilling inclusion/exclusion criteria, a first baseline assessment will be conducted. Within one to two days, a second set of baseline data will be collected for performance measures. Subjects will then be randomly assigned to be fitted with C-Brace or to continue wearing the current KAFO/SCO. After fitting, an accommodation period follows that will last up to 14 days prior to the initial home use. The first follow-up data collection will occur after three months of the initial home use period. Afterwards, the patients will cross over to KAFO/SCO or C-Brace, respectively. The participants who were fitted with C-Brace will cross over to KAFO/SCO and vice versa. Another accommodation phase will be offered for both C-Brace and KAFO/SCO wearers to ensure that subjects can properly use both devices before the cross-over home use period. The second follow-up data collection will occur after 3-months of the cross-over home use period. At the end of the study, the patients can choose to keep the C-Brace for up to 24 months until reimbursement or to return to their original KAFO/SCO.
