Digital monitoring of symptoms in spinocerebellar ataxia
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study uses wearable sensors and smartphone apps to track movement and daily symptoms in people with spinocerebellar ataxia. It aims to see if these digital tools can help doctors monitor the disease more accurately.

This study tests a new kind of deep brain stimulation that adjusts automatically to improve balance and coordination in adults with SCA6, a genetic form of ataxia. It may help patients who can still walk but have moderate to severe symptoms.
This study tests if deep brain stimulation (putting a device in the brain to send mild electrical pulses) can improve balance and movement in people with spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6), a genetic condition that causes trouble walking and coordination.
This study tests how well remote monitoring tools, like wearable devices, can track symptoms in people with movement disorders like PSP, Parkinson's disease, or MSA. The goal is to see if these tools can help doctors better understand how the disease progresses from home.
This study follows people with certain types of spinocerebellar ataxia (a group of conditions that cause progressive movement problems) to understand how the disease changes over time and how genes might influence it. It may help researchers learn more about these conditions and support future treatments.
This study looks at how people with certain genetic types of spinocerebellar ataxia (a condition that affects movement and coordination) understand social situations. It aims to see if there are differences in social thinking compared to people without the condition.
This study uses wearable devices (like smartwatches or activity trackers) to monitor movement and motor development in young children with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a rare genetic condition affecting muscle strength. The goal is to see if wearables can track disease progression and treatment response better than traditional clinic visits.
