About
Dr. Sarajova Viswamitra is a dedicated clinician-researcher advancing neurorehabilitation, with a focus on robotic exoskeleton therapy for stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors. Her landmark study, "A Single-center Comparison Using Exoskeleton Rehabilitation for Cerebrovascular Accidents and Traumatic Brain Injury in a Cohort of Hispanic Patients" (2020), provides critical evidence on the efficacy of the FDA-approved EKSO GT Bionics® exoskeleton in a diverse, underrepresented population. By directly comparing outcomes between CVA and TBI patients, Dr. Viswamitra’s work addresses a significant gap in rehabilitation science, demonstrating that robotic-assisted gait training can improve mobility and functional recovery across both conditions. This research has been cited 2 times, laying groundwork for larger trials and highlighting the importance of culturally inclusive study designs. Her contributions are particularly impactful given the high prevalence of TBI and stroke as leading causes of disability, and her focus on Hispanic patients helps ensure that emerging technologies benefit all communities. Dr. Viswamitra’s commitment to evidence-based, patient-centered rehabilitation positions her as a rising voice in neurorecovery and health equity.
