New treadmill training shows promise for Parkinson's gait

NCT ID NCT05131880

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

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.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study tested whether a gait re-education program using a sequential square treadmill (Tapiz Fisior) could help people with mild-to-moderate Parkinson's disease walk better and reduce fall risk. Fifty-two participants were randomly assigned to either the treadmill program plus standard physiotherapy or standard physiotherapy alone. The study measured walking speed, balance, fall risk, and daily independence.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
gait re-education program using a sequential square treadmill (Tapiz Fisior)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a new physical therapy approach to help people with Parkinson's walk better and lower their chance of falling.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with no phase designation, so results may not apply widely. The intervention is a physical program, not a drug, so benefits may be modest and require ongoing practice.
