After a serious car accident, Zander was told he may never walk again. After more than a year of physical therapy, Zander is regaining some mobility and motor control, but walking and standing remain difficult. What emerging medical technology would Zander’s doctor MOST likely recommend for him?

An exoskeleton is a wearable robotic support that can help a person with impaired leg movement stand and walk. Since Zander is regaining some motor control but still has difficulty walking and standing, an exoskeleton could assist his movement during rehabilitation. Bionic limbs replace missing limbs, while a medical alert device calls for help rather than supporting mobility.
