Determining the Long-Term Stability of the Glide Control Strategy for Upper Limb Prostheses
This research is intended to test whether the prescription of the Glide prosthesis control system reduces the burden of use for both patients and their clinica…
Impact of Improving Footwear Options for Women Veterans With Amputations
Veterans with leg amputations have limited footwear options because their artificial feet do not change shapes for different shoes. Studies have shown that wom…
Improving Socket Fit in Female and Male Veterans With Transtibial and TransfemoralAmputation
The investigators do not yet know how a prosthetic socket with adjustable panels affects the performance of people with a lower limb amputation compared to a c…
Transtibial Osseointegration Surgery Study (TOSS)
Purpose: Aim 1: Quantify soft tissue complications and infections of service members with transtibial amputations treated with OPRA OI and compare them to tra…
Controlling Locomotion Over Continuously Varying Activities for Agile Powered Prosthetic Legs
The overall goal of this project is to model human joint biomechanics over continuously-varying locomotion to enable adaptive control of powered above-knee pro…
Does a Microprocessor-Controlled Prosthetic Knee Joint Improve Mobility and Quality of Life in K2-Level Veteran Ambulators?
Microprocessor-controlled knees (MPKs) automatically adjust resistance or damping in the joint to improve swing- and/or stance-phase control as appropriate for…
The Effectiveness of Frontal Plane Adaptability in a Novel Foot Prosthesis for People With Above-Knee Amputations, Bilateral Amputations, or Limited Mobility
People with lower extremity amputation (LEA) have persistent problems with balance, falls, residual limb pain, functional mobility, cognitive attention during …
Surgical Treatments for Postamputation Pain
This is a double-blind randomised controlled trial (RCT) which compares the effectiveness of three surgical techniques for alleviating residual limb pain (RLP)…
Quantifying Bone and Skin Movement in the Residual Limb-Socket Interface of Individuals With Transtibial Amputation Using Dynamic Stereo X-Ray
Individuals with lower extremity amputation are often challenged by complications that arise from poor prosthetic fit, including movement of the residual limb …
Evaluation of an Implantable Intramuscular Device to Control a Myoelectric Prosthesis
The purpose of this research study is to see how well a new type of myoelectric prosthesis works. A myoelectric prosthesis is a robotic limb for amputees that …
Epidermal Sensors for Wireless and Enhanced Amputee Skin Tracking (E-SWEAT) Part 1
The goal of this clinical trial is to 1) demonstrate the feasibility of monitoring pressure, temperature, and lactic acid density of sweat inside the prostheti…
Fall-related Health Outcome in Lower Limb Prosthesis Users: A Pragmatic Clinical Trial to Assess Effectiveness of Microprocessor-controlled Prosthetic Knees
The goal of this study is to find out if using microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees (MPKs), prosthetic knees with a built-in computer, improves health ou…
