In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Great Toe Strength (GTS) is a potential clinical biomarker that has been associated with functional mobility and health; Additionally, GTS has been identified in the literature as one of the early symptoms of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN). The purpose of this research study is to evaluate GTS in individuals with CIPN and healthy adults using ToeScale and see how it relates to nerve issues from chemotherapy. Additionally, we aim to assess the usability of the novel GTS assessment device, ToeScale among the participants. As a part of this study visit, you will complete some questionnaires followed by GTS and balance and gait assessments.
