Trial summary

The objective is the determination of norms on healthy subjects, by age groups (20-29/30-39/40-49/50-59/60-69/70-79/80-89 years) for the posturological evaluation of four posture tests: the sensory organization test, the motor coordination test, the adaptation test, the stability limit test.

About this study

Official title: Determination of Standards on a New Static and Dynamic Posture Platform

The objective is the determination of norms on healthy subjects, by age groups (20-29/30-39/40-49/50-59/60-69/70-79/80-89 years) for the posturological evaluation of four posture tests: the sensory organization test, the motor coordination test, the adaptation test, the stability limit test.

Read the detailed description

The objective is the determination of norms by age groups (20-29/30-39/40-49/50-59/60-69/70-79/80-89) of four tests of posture: the test of sensory organization, the test of motor coordination, the test of adaptation, the test of stability limit, of a new platform of static and dynamic posturology.

When moving within an environment, sensory information from the environment and the body is registered within the sensory systems (Hilber et al., 2018). More specifically, it is the functions of balancing and spatial orientation that are brought into play to produce behavioral responses that are adapted to different situations and to anticipate events in one's environment. It is therefore essential to establish not only posturological norms but also norms for the function of spatial orientation in order to propose a complete assessment of the postural and spatial cognitive profile of healthy subjects that can serve as a reference population.

These standards will serve as a basis for determining the pathological values during the exploration of numerous pathologies, in particular vestibular pathology, pathologies inducing balance and posture disorders (neurology, rheumatology).

The measurement of posture and variations of the center of gravity represents an important output marker, little or never taken into account in medical practice, and linked to a large number of integration processes, in particular multisensory and sensory-motor. Its parameters vary according to the sensory information received and processed related to the maintenance of balance: visual system, vestibular system, somesthesic system, visceral sensory system. Posture is also modulated by the attentional level and cognitive load. Posturography is one of the most cost-effective instruments in terms of clinical utility, particularly in the diagnosis of vestibular pathology (Stewart et al., 1999). Thus, the development of such an instrument represents an innovative and advantageous development in terms of diagnostic improvement.

the investigators will perform the standard setting according to a precise statistical approach (analysis of variance ANOVA with correlation coefficients and 95% confidence intervals to establish test-retest reliability).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Posture standards in people with Static and Dynamic Posture Standards, run by University Hospital, Caen at 1 site in France.

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 7 inclusion and 6 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Jul 2025. 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 France. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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?

Sensory Organization Test (SOT) (time frame: day 1 after inclusion). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. 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 25 Jul 2025.
