What this trial studies
This study evaluates the impact of spastic equinus foot surgery on patients' daily gait and quality of life over 18 months. Thirty patients will be monitored using a connected watch to measure their mean daily gait perimeter before and six months after surgery. Comprehensive clinical assessments will be conducted, including demographic data, spasticity evaluations, and functional mobility tests. The study aims to provide insights into the effectiveness of surgical interventions for spastic foot.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults over 18 years old who require surgery for spastic foot and are able to walk.
Not a fit: Patients with previous spastic surgery, psychiatric diseases, or those who are pregnant may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance rehabilitation strategies and improve the quality of life for patients with spastic foot.
How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results in similar surgical interventions for spasticity, indicating potential for success in this approach.
