Gait, Spastic
Walking Ability and Limit of Stability in Children With Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Trunk control in children with spastic Cerebral Palsy (CP) is impaired. They have weaker trunk muscle strenght, and insufficient sitting/standing balance according to their developing peers.

Fall, Gait, Unsteady
Non-invasive Brain Stimulation to Improve Unsteady Gait in Older Adults (StimGait)
Walking is a complex and continuous task that entails repetitive motions of the body. Relatively high gait variability sensitively predicts falls and cognitive decline in older adults.
- Conditions
- Fall, Gait, Unsteady, Mobility Limitation
- Trial name
- NCT06008431
- Testing
- Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) (active)
- Where
- United States
- Volunteers
- 27 people, healthy volunteers welcome
