Walking assessment after lumbar spinal stenosis surgery

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.

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.

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 study looks at how lumbar spine surgery (fusion or artificial disc “prosthesis” on one or two levels) affects how complex your walking looks and feels. It may help doctors better understand what to expect from surgery and how it changes movement in people with long-term low back pain.

This study looks at whether people with lumbar spinal stenosis (a narrowing in the lower spine) have a 'directional preference'—a specific movement or position that eases their symptoms. If you have leg or buttock pain when walking, this trial may help find better ways to treat your condition.
