Studying back braces for spine movement in healthy adults
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests how different back braces affect how your spine moves. It is looking for healthy young adults to see if these braces change the way you bend or move your spine.

This trial tests whether specific three-dimensional exercises (Schroth method) can improve trunk muscle endurance, sleep quality, and quality of life in adolescents with hyperkyphosis (excessive forward curve of the upper spine). If you have a child between 12 and 18 with a Cobb angle of 45° or more in the upper back, this study may help.
This trial tests whether wearing a custom back brace helps adults with painful scoliosis. You might join if your spine has a significant curve and you've had moderate to severe low back pain for months.
This study measures how your spine and back/neck move using motion testing and equipment. It may help researchers better understand differences between people with spine pain and people without.
This study measures how your spine and pelvis line up in everyday standing and walking, using multiple types of measurements. It aims to better understand adult spinal deformity and how it affects body mechanics—information that may help plan future care.
This trial tests a wearable flexible sensor to measure how your spine moves. It may help people with various spine conditions understand their motion patterns better.
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.
