Monitoring memory decline with a smart insole and ankle device
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a special insole and ankle device that tracks how you walk to help detect early signs of memory decline. It might help identify changes that could be related to Alzheimer's disease or other dementias.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
