Muscle sensor tested for fatigue detection in teens
NCT ID NCT07161531
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study checks if a surface electromyography (sEMG) device can consistently measure muscle fatigue in healthy adolescents. Twenty-seven teens will do repeated squats until exhaustion while their leg muscle activity is recorded, repeating the test a week later. The goal is to see if the sensor readings are reliable and match how tired the teens feel.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Surface electromyography (sEMG) monitoring
- What this could lead to
- If reliable, sEMG could become a standard tool to objectively measure muscle fatigue in adolescents, aiding diagnosis and treatment planning.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage reliability study in healthy teens only. It does not test any treatment, and results may not apply to other groups or real-world settings.
