What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Medio-lateral Stability Index (MLSI)

    Medio-lateral Stability Index (MLSI) represents fluctuations from the horizontal around the mediolateral axis

    Time frame: Day 0, Day 90

  2. Anterior-posterior Stability Index (APSI)

    Anterior-posterior Stability Index (APSI) represents fluctuations from the horizontal around the anteroposterior axis

    Time frame: Day 0, Day 90

  3. Overall Stability Index (OSI)

    Overall Stability Index (OSI) a composite of MLSI and APSI so it is sensitive to changes in both directions

    Time frame: Day 0, Day 90

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Aug 18, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
