Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study

Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study will test whether a system called BlazePod®, which uses flashing lights to challenge balance, can help predict ankle injury risk in healthy, active adults. Sixty participants will do balance tests with and without the lights, and researchers will compare the results. If the new test works well, it could become a simple preseason screening tool for athletes.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
BlazePod® system (reactive light pods for balance testing)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a simple, tech-based way to screen athletes for ankle injury risk before the season starts.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 60 participants, and it only looks at healthy young adults. The results may not apply to other groups or predict real injuries.
