Video app teaches walking aid skills – but does it boost confidence?
NCT ID NCT07434570
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a video-based mobile app can help people learn to use walking aids like walkers, crutches, or canes. Fifteen current or future walking aid users tried the app and researchers measured their balance confidence and skill. The goal was to see if the app works better than a sham app that teaches unrelated health skills.
