NCT ID NCT07362004

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

Summary

This study will check if a virtual reality (VR) version of the Timed Up and Go test is as good as the traditional version for measuring how well people can move around. Sixty healthy young adults aged 18-30 will do both the standard test and a VR version using a Meta Quest 3 headset. The goal is to see if the VR test gives consistent results and accurately reflects real-world mobility.

Immersive virtual reality adaptation of the Timed Up and Go test

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a more standardized and objective way to assess mobility, potentially improving fall risk evaluation and rehabilitation monitoring.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-stage study in healthy young adults, so results may not apply to older or symptomatic populations. The VR test may not match the accuracy of the conventional version.
