Study of limb movements in patients with neuromuscular diseases

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to validate algorithms that analyze signals from sensors in magneto-inertial control units to reconstruct upper and lower limb movements in patients with neuromuscular diseases. It involves both patients with these conditions and control subjects without any motor function impairments. The study will assess movement patterns under various conditions to improve understanding of motor function and ambulation. The interventions used in this study include ActiMyo® and Syde®.

Why it matters
