Testing movement with mobility assistive devices
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study measures how people move while using assistive devices during guided movement tasks, sometimes on a treadmill. It may help improve these tools and how safely they support different types of movement needs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests spinal stimulation and mobility-related devices to see if they can improve how well you move. You would visit a lab, do simple movement tasks, and share feedback about comfort and what you experience.
This study tests new motorized prosthetic legs (artificial limbs) to see if they help people walk better and farther. You'll wear the device and do some walking activities to help researchers understand if it improves movement and quality of life.
This study tests a new way to measure balance in people who have a below-knee amputation on one leg. It uses special sensors to see how well the legs work together during movement, which could help improve prosthetic fit and rehabilitation.
This study tests a new type of bionic leg that can adjust to different walking speeds and activities. You may be able to join if you are a healthy adult or an adult with a leg amputation who can walk well.
This study tests whether a new prosthetic foot can help people with a lower-limb amputation walk better. You will use your current foot and the new foot, and we will measure how well you walk.
This study looks at how people who have lost a leg walk, balance, and move with an artificial limb (prosthesis). Participating helps researchers understand how to improve prosthetic devices and rehabilitation.
