NCT ID NCT06127316

Summary

This study is testing how different heel heights in a special carbon fiber leg brace affect pressure on the foot and pain levels during walking. Researchers will measure forces and motion as 20 adults with painful lower leg injuries walk with and without the brace. The goal is to find the most comfortable and effective brace setup to help people walk with less pain after an injury.
