Scientists use wearable tech to map the road to recovery after serious leg breaks
NCT ID NCT04047030
Summary
This study tested a wearable device called the Mobility Toolkit to see if it could effectively measure how well people walk after recovering from major leg fractures. Researchers followed 244 adults with serious ankle or shin fractures for a year, having them wear the device during clinic visits. They also tested 150 healthy adults to compare results, aiming to create better tools for tracking recovery.
