What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

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

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 tests three methods—mechanical, visual, and auditory—to safely recreate stumbles and slips in 20 volunteers, including people with prosthetic legs and those without. The goal is to find which method best mimics real-life trips without causing injury. Results will help improve fall prevention training and balance research.
