Spine study aims to uncover hidden walking clues in older adults

NCT ID NCT07309926

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study will observe how different spinal problems—like scoliosis, stenosis, or herniated discs—change the way people walk and use their back muscles. Researchers will compare 120 older adults (age 60+) with these conditions to healthy volunteers using motion cameras and muscle sensors. The goal is to find unique walking patterns for each condition, which could lead to better physical therapy and surgical planning.
