Testing a software tool for measuring lower back flexibility
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether computer software can accurately measure how far your lower back can bend forward. Researchers will use a special measurement technique on healthy young adults to see if the software works reliably.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study measures how well different types of chronic low back pain affect your balance using a special platform called the Biodex Balance System. It may help researchers understand which treatments work best for your specific back problem.
This trial uses wearable sensors to measure how smoothly your lower back moves before and after rehabilitation. It aims to see if rehabilitation improves movement fluidity in people with chronic low back pain.
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 study tests a specific type of back manipulation (Lever Positioning Manipulation) to understand how it affects the discs in the lower spine. It may help people with a herniated disc at L4-L5 find a non-surgical treatment option.
This study checks whether a therapist’s judgment about how your back controls movement matches objective measurements (more technical testing). It may help improve how low back pain rehabilitation is assessed and planned.
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.
