U.S., Dec. 10 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07273097) titled 'Effects of Ankle Evertor Fatigue on Perturbed Gait' on Nov. 26.
Brief Summary: This study will investigate the effects of ankle evertor muscle fatigue on gait stability during treadmill walking with mechanical perturbations. Participants will walk at two speeds (0.4 m/s and 1.0 m/s) while random medial and lateral perturbations (<10% body weight) are applied to the pelvis. Surface EMG from ankle muscles and center of pressure (COP)-based gait parameters (e.g., step length, step width, single support duration, COP trajectory) will be analyzed before and immediately after an isotonic fatigue protocol of the ankle evertors.
