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
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
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 Results may not be published yet.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
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

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.

This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a new way to measure walking efficiency in people who have had a stroke. Researchers will have 18 participants walk on a treadmill, including a resisted walking trial, to see if a biomechanical measure can pinpoint movement problems better than current methods. The goal is to improve rehabilitation strategies for walking impairment.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better rehabilitation methods for stroke survivors by identifying specific walking inefficiencies.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 18 participants. It measures outcomes in a single session, so long-term benefits are not yet known.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 18 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Age 30-80 years at the time of consent * Hemiparesis from ischemic and/or hemorrhagic strokes * Most recent stroke for which participant sought treatment, at least 3 months prior to study consent * Walking speed \<1.0 m/s on the 10-meter walk test * Able to walk 10m over ground with assistive devices as needed * Able to walk at least 5 minutes continuously on the treadmill ≥ 0.1 mile per hour * No contraindications to exercise according to ACSM guidelines * Able to communicate with investigators, follow a 2-step command and correctly answer consent comprehension questions Exclusion Criteria: * Hospitalization for cardiac or pulmonary disease within past 3 months * Implanted pacemaker or defibrillator * Severe lower limb hypertonia (Ashworth \>2) * Foot drop or lower limb joint instability without adequate stabilizing device * Clinically significant neurologic disorder other than stroke * Other significant medical condition likely to jeopardize safety (e.g. joint contracture, gait limited by pain) * Pregnancy
