Brace for posture and walking in children with cerebral palsy
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a soft back brace designed to support the natural curve of the lower back in children with cerebral palsy. The goal is to see if wearing the brace helps with balance and walking speed.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 6 and 15 years old
- You have cerebral palsy

This study looks at how children with cerebral palsy control their trunk and center of mass while walking. It may help understand balance challenges and guide future therapies.
This trial tests whether a special hip brace plus exercise helps improve walking, balance, and reduce muscle tightness in children with cerebral palsy. It's designed for children who can walk a bit but may have trouble with hip stiffness.
This study measures the way a child’s pelvis and spine sit and hold posture while seated. It is meant to improve understanding of posture needs in children with cerebral palsy and help guide care.
This trial tests a special exercise program (Universal Exercise Unit) plus task-focused training for children with spastic cerebral palsy. It aims to help with walking, balance, and daily activities.
This study tests whether special core (belly and back) exercises can help improve standing balance, walking, and movement in children with diplegic cerebral palsy. It is designed for children who can already walk and have mild to moderate leg tightness.
This study tests a robotic exoskeleton designed to help children with cerebral palsy walk better. The device supports the legs during walking, and the goal is to see if it can improve movement and daily life.
