Ergonomic foot pedal for neurosurgeons
This trial tests a foot pedal platform designed to improve comfort and reduce strain during brain or spine surgeries. Surgeons who try both devices will help see if the new tool is better.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You regularly perform brain or spine surgeries.
- You are willing to use both surgical devices several times.
- You do not have severe muscle or joint issues that prevent using the foot pedal.
- You are able and willing to be observed and fill out surveys.

This trial compares two treatments—electrical stimulation and mirror therapy—to help people who had a stroke within the last 6 months lift their foot better when walking. The goal is to improve foot clearance and reduce trips or falls.
This trial compares a freezing procedure (cryoneurotomy) with standard surgery to treat foot stiffness after a stroke. It aims to see which method better corrects the foot turning inward and downward, helping you walk more easily.
This study tests a wearable foot device that may help teenagers with hemiplegia (weakness on one side of the body) walk better and improve balance. Participants use the device at home for a few weeks and avoid regular physical therapy during that time.
This trial uses a noninvasive neuromodulation approach to stimulate the spinal walking circuits in children after spinal cord injury. It is meant to see whether the treatment can help a child practice stepping when they currently cannot stand or start walking.
This study compares walking patterns in people with foot drop caused by stroke, traumatic brain injury, or multiple sclerosis. The goal is to improve understanding of how these conditions affect walking.
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.
