New study aims to improve fall risk assessment for stroke survivors
NCT ID NCT07494487
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will check if certain walking and balance tests are reliable for people who had a stroke at least six months ago. Researchers will use a walking questionnaire, a 400-meter walk test, a falls confidence scale, and a vision test. The goal is to see if these tools can better measure community walking ability and fall risk. No treatment or drug is being tested.
