About this trial

In the sponsor's words

The study is designed to validate the accuracy of steps detected by a commercially available smartwatch in persons with multiple sclerosis. Specifically, the investigators examine whether a smartwatch can detect steps accurately during slow, comfortable and fast overground walking. The total steps counted by the smartwatch will be compared to those counted by an accelerometer commonly used in clinical studies and the actually walked steps.
