Textured Insoles Feasibility Trial for Children with Motor Coordination Issues
Summary
Textured insoles may improve balance measures in children with motor coordination issues, but do not show significant impact on endurance measures. The trial aimed to assess the feasibility of conducting a randomised controlled trial for children with motor coordination issues and to evaluate the limited efficacy of textured insoles on gross motor assessment balance domains and endurance.
Practical Solutions and Value
The trial found that using a larger multi-disciplinary organization for recruitment, providing velcro shoe fixtures, and using a shorter timed walk test can improve the feasibility of the trial design. Furthermore, the study justifies progressing to a larger, well-powered randomised control trial considering the preliminary efficacy findings.
Implications
Clinical trials are essential for developing safe and effective treatments. Our AI-driven platform, DocSym, consolidates ICD-11 standards, clinical protocols, and research into a single, easily accessible knowledge base for clinicians. Streamlining operations through mobile apps can support scheduling, monitoring treatments, and telemedicine, making it easier to manage patient care and expand services digitally.
By leveraging AI, clinics can enhance their workflows and improve patient outcomes while reducing paper routine. Learn more about how we can help at aidevmd.com.
