U.S., March 12 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07465328) titled 'Studying the Impairment of Stroke and Sarcopenia Patients Using Maximum Voluntary Contractions of the Leg Joints.' on March 06.
Brief Summary: The goal of this study is to obtain the maximum voluntary torques of the lower-limb joints and to monitor oxygen level in the main lower-limb muscles. This will be done for three joints: i.e. the hip, knee and ankle joint and NIRS sensors will be placed on the biceps femoris, rectus femoris and gastrocnemius muscle. For the hip and knee, the maximum torque will be determined both in exertion direction and flexion direction. For the ankle, both plantarflexion and dorsiflexion will be consider...
