About this study

This pilot clinical trial assesses the safety and feasibility of a novel fabric-type orthosis designed to mimic the knee extensor muscles and improve gait in elderly patients with mobility impairments due to conditions like sarcopenia, diabetes, or knee osteoarthritis. The study aims to test this orthosis in a real- world setting to see if it can enhance mobility and stability for elderly individuals, potentially reducing falls and improving quality of life. A total of 30 participants aged 65 and older will be recruited to use this orthosis across multiple sessions, where their gait will be analyzed under various conditions to measure the device's impact on walking speed, stability, and muscle activation.
