Trial summary

1. Were there differences in functional ability between ambulatory individuals with SCI who passed and failed the independent sit-to-stand (iSTS) task? 2. Did the ability of iSTS relate to ability of walking as determined using a type of AAD used? 3. What were factors associated with the ability of iSTS? Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The study is conducted in subjects with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) who are able to walk independently with or without an ambulatory assistive device (AAD) from the Srinagarind hospital, KhonKaen University, Thailand.

Who may be able to join

  • Ambulatory patients with iSCI from both non-traumatic and traumatic causes
  • Aged at least 18 years
  • Who are able to walk independently with or without AADs at least 15 meters continuously [FIM locomotor (FIM-L) scores = 5 to 7]

Who cannot join

  • Any patients with conditions that might affect ambulatory ability; such as brain function disorders, visual deficits, musculoskeletal pain (VAS > 5), deformity of the musculoskeletal system, unable to follow a command of the tests, unstable medical conditions.

About this study

Official title: Relationship Between Ability of Sit-to-stand and Types of Walking Device Used in Ambulatory Patients With Spinal Cord Injury

  1. Were there differences in functional ability between ambulatory individuals with SCI who passed and failed the independent sit-to-stand (iSTS) task?
  2. Did the ability of iSTS relate to ability of walking as determined using a type of AAD used?
  3. What were factors associated with the ability of iSTS?
Read the detailed description
  • To evaluate the proportion and compare functional abilities between subjects who passed and failed the independent sit-to-stand (iSTS) task.
  • To assess the relationship between ability of iSTS and types of AAD used.
  • To investigate factors associated with the ability of iSTS.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Sit-to-stand: PassThe subjects seated on a standard armless chair with their back upright at 90 degrees against the backrest of the chair, feet placement on the floor with the heels at 10 cm behind the knees and their arms on their sides. Then they were instructed to stand up from the chair without using the arms. The ability was recorded as 'pass' if the subjects could safely rise from the chair without using their arms and with no more than contact guarding assist.
Sit-to-stand: FailThe subjects seated on a standard armless chair with their back upright at 90 degrees against the backrest of the chair, feet placement on the floor with the heels at 10 cm behind the knees and their arms on their sides. Then they were instructed to stand up from the chair without using the arms. The ability was recorded as 'fail' if the subjects could not rise from the chair without using their arms and/or with more than contact guarding assist.

What is being measured

    Percent of body-weight support during sit-to-stand performance

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Timed up and go test

    Ability of dynamic balance control

    Measured: 1 day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Injuries, Spinal Cord, run by Khon Kaen University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Sep 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Independent sit-to-stand test (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Sep 2016.
