Ekso: FDA Clears Robotic Exoskeleton for Use with MS

 Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: EKSO) (the “Company”), an industry leader in exoskeleton technology for medical and industrial use, today announced it has received 510(k) clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to market its EksoNR™ robotic exoskeleton for use with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients. EksoNR is the first exoskeleton device to receive FDA clearance for rehabilitation use in patients with MS, an indication which significantly expands the device’s use to a broader group of patients.

EksoNR is the latest-generation device of the most clinically used robotic exoskeleton on the market. It was previously cleared by the FDA for stroke and spinal cord injury rehabilitation in 2016 and acquired brain injury (ABI) in 2020. The device was the first of its kind to receive a stroke indication, is the only exoskeleton with an ABI indication, and now is the first to receive an indication for MS.
