Trial summary

Variable patterns of gait disturbance can be found in patients with spine disease including the problems of gait initiation, freezing of gait, reduced balance and postural control, reduced step lengths, increased step times, and slow walking speed. Read more about this study

  • Inertial measurement unit sensor-based gait analysis systemDevice

    Gait analysis was performed on 20-m long corridor to collect gait data on more than 23 strides. The gait protocol was performed with an IMU sensor-based gait analysis system (DynaStab™, JEIOS, South Korea) consisting of a shoe-type data logger (Smart Balance1 SB-1, JEIOS, South Korea) and a data acquisition system (DynaStab-Spotfire1, Tibco Spotfire 7.10). The shoe-type data logger included an IMU sensor (IMU-3000™, InvenSense, USA) that measured tri-axial acceleration (up to ± 6 g) and tri-axial angular 136 velocity (up to ± 500˚ s-1) along three orthogonal axes.12,16 The IMU sensors were installed in both shoe outsoles, and the data were transmitted wirelessly to a data acquisition system via Bluetooth®. Shoe sizes were adapted to each participant, with available sizes ranging from 225 mm to 280 mm. The local coordinate system for the IMU sensors included the 140 anteroposterior, mediolateral, and vertical directions.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. gait asymmetry

    comparing the swing times performed by one leg with respect to the swing times performed by the other, according to the following formula: GA = 100 x ln(SSWT/LSWT)

    Measured: for 1minute walking

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Inertial measurement unit sensor-based gait analysis system in people with Ankylosing Spondylitis and Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis, run by Pusan National University Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Apr 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

gait asymmetry (time frame: for 1minute walking). 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 30 Apr 2021.
