Testing a walking and balance test for spinal stenosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial is testing a simple physical test (the Dubousset test) to see if it can help measure how well people with lumbar spinal stenosis can move and function. If you have chronic lower back pain from this condition, you may be able to join to help doctors better understand your abilities.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Must be between 18 and 65 years old.
- Must have had chronic low back pain from spinal stenosis for more than three months.
- Cannot have a broken bone, be pregnant, or have a condition that stops you from exercising.
- Your body mass index (BMI) must be less than 40.
- Cannot have major muscle, bone, or nerve problems that affect how you walk.

This study looks at how well people walk after surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis. It may help you understand your recovery if you had surgery 6 weeks to 3 months ago.
This study looks at balance problems in older adults with lumbar spinal stenosis, a condition that narrows the spinal canal and can cause pain or trouble walking. It may help doctors understand how surgery affects balance and daily life.
This trial studies walking patterns and back muscle activity in older adults undergoing spine surgery for conditions like scoliosis, spinal stenosis, or herniated discs. It aims to understand how these conditions affect movement and recovery.
This trial tests a non-invasive posture therapy for older veterans with lumbar spinal stenosis (a narrowing in the lower spine). It aims to reduce pain and improve walking without surgery.
This study looks at a natural movement called dural pulsation (pulsing of the spinal sac) in people with lumbar spinal stenosis. It might help doctors understand the condition better and could lead to better treatments for your back or leg pain.
This study is tracking how active people are before and after surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis (a common cause of back and leg pain in older adults). It aims to see if activity monitoring can help improve recovery.
