For conditions 3 and 4, four exoskeleton parameters will be adjusted: eccentric load assistance, concentric load assistance, assistance during lower-limb flexion in the swing phase, and assistance during lower-limb extension in the swing phase. The increased and decreased assistance conditions will correspond to an increase and a decrease of 3 Nm, respectively, for each of these parameters. A minimum assistance of 1 Nm per parameter will be maintained when the baseline preferred assistance level is low. During condition 5, the exoskeleton will be set to free mode, meaning that no assistance will be provided, but motor resistance will be eliminated.",[9],null,[22,28],{"name":23,"role":24,"phone":25,"phoneExt":26,"email":27},"Alexandra Potvin-Desrochers, PhD","CONTACT","819-966-6200","335671","alexandra.potvin-desrochers@ssss.gouv.qc.ca",{"name":29,"role":24,"phone":25,"phoneExt":30,"email":31},"Lucas Michaud, PhD","338067","07.labotechsoins@ssss.gouv.qc.ca",[33],{"facility":34,"status":35,"city":36,"state":37,"zip":38,"country":39,"countryCode":40,"cosmosGeoPoint":41,"geoPoint":46,"contacts":47},"TechCare Research Lab - CISSS de l'Outaouais","RECRUITING","Gatineau","Quebec","J9H 3Z1","Canada","CA",{"type":42,"coordinates":43},"Point",[44,45],-75.70164,45.47723,{"lat":45,"lon":44},[48,49,50],{"name":23,"role":24,"phone":25,"phoneExt":26,"email":27},{"name":29,"role":24,"phone":25,"phoneExt":30,"email":31},{"name":23,"role":51,"phone":20,"phoneExt":20,"email":20},"PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR",{"type":53,"investigatorFullName":20,"investigatorTitle":20,"investigatorAffiliation":20,"oldNameTitle":20,"oldOrganization":20},"SPONSOR","100636576","exoskeleton-assisted-mobility-in-aging-and-in-parkinsons-disease-100636576",false,"NCT07567482","Exoskeleton-Assisted Mobility in Aging and in Parkinson's Disease","Exoskeleton-Assisted Mobility in Aging and in Parkinson's Disease: A Mixed-Methods Study of Effectiveness and Acceptability","Participants with Parkinson's disease\n\nInclusion Criteria:\n\n* Ability to walk for at least 30 minutes with or without minimal aid\n* Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease\n* Hoehn and Yahr stage 1 to 4\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Height smaller than 152 cm\n* Severe vascular conditions of the lower limbs that may limit mobility or pose a risk.\n* Presence of any implantable or external life-sustaining medical device such as a pacemaker\n* Severe osteoporosis or high risk of fractures\n* Contra-indication to the required physical effort\n* Severe cognitive impairment (MoCA \\\u003C 21)\n* Presence of neurological disorders, lower-limb injuries, or other conditions interfering with mobility, other than Parkinson's disease.\n\nHealthy elderly participants without Parkinson's disease\n\nInclusion Criteria:\n\n* Ability to walk for at least 30 minutes with or without minimal aid\n* Age ≥ 65 years old\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Height smaller than 152 cm\n* Severe vascular conditions of the lower limbs that may limit mobility or pose a risk.\n* Presence of any implantable or external life-sustaining medical device such as a pacemaker\n* Severe osteoporosis or high risk of fractures\n* Contra-indication to the required physical effort\n* Severe cognitive impairment (MoCA \\\u003C 21)\n* Presence of neurological disorders, lower-limb injuries, or other conditions interfering with mobility",true,"ALL","50 Years",{"count":65,"type":66},26,"ESTIMATED","INTERVENTIONAL",[69],"NA","This study will evaluate whether a wearable robotic exoskeleton can improve mobility, balance, and walking in healthy older adults and in individuals living with Parkinson's disease, populations at high risk of falls and mobility limitations.
