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
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

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 Results may not be published yet.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.
Cancelled

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 trial tests whether a virtual reality (VR) gamified rehabilitation program, using Xbox Kinect, can improve functional mobility, balance, and trunk control in children with spastic diplegic cerebral palsy. Forty-two children aged 7-15 years with GMFCS levels II and III will be randomly assigned to receive either VR-based rehabilitation combined with conventional physiotherapy or conventional physiotherapy alone, over 18 sessions in six weeks. The study measures outcomes like the Timed Up and Go Test, Pediatric Balance Scale, and Trunk Impairment Scale to see if the VR approach offers added benefits.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Virtual reality-mediated gamified rehabilitation program using Xbox Kinect combined with conventional physiotherapy
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a more engaging and motivating way to improve mobility, balance, and trunk control in children with cerebral palsy, potentially enhancing their independence and quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a small trial (42 participants) and early-stage, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention requires special equipment and may not be accessible or suitable for all children.
