New study aims to improve sitting comfort for kids with cerebral palsy
NCT ID NCT05657548
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at how the spine and pelvis line up when children with cerebral palsy sit. Researchers will take X-rays of 100 children aged 4 to 17 who have limited walking ability. The goal is to better understand these alignments and create a standard way to take these X-rays, which could help prevent future spine and hip problems.
