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…
Evaluation of Functional Performance of Persons With Limb Differences to Optimize Pattern Recognition Control of Powered Upper Limb Prosthesis
The goal of this clinical trial is to systematically evaluate whether or not two commonly held fundamental assumptions for pattern recognition control translat…
Human Penile Allotransplantation
Injuries to the genitalia are of concern to the military with emphasis placed on the surgical reconstruction and psychological health of these Wounded Warriors…
Automatic Activity-Dependent and Phase-Varying Prosthetic Foot Stiffness Modulation to Improve Balance Control in Individuals With Lower-Limb Amputations
The goal of this clinical trial is to identify prosthesis stiffness that optimizes balance control in individuals with below knee amputations. The main questio…
A Feasibility Study Evaluating the Magnetic Bead Tracking System and Its Safety and Effectiveness When Used With a Bionic External Prosthesis to Improve Prosthetic Controllability for Persons With Transtibial Amputation
The investigation is an early feasibility study in up to 5 subjects, in which the primary objective is to capture preliminary safety and effectiveness informat…
R21: An Easy-to-use, iNtelligent, Affordable LinEr (ENABLE) System for Socket Fit Assessment
Lower limb amputees (LLA) rely on their prosthetic legs to remain active and lead an independent life. For most LLAs, a well-fitted prosthetic socket is the on…
Assessing Ambulatory and Non-ambulatory Community Mobility in People With Lower Limb Amputation
Mobility is a fundamental aspect of daily life, enabling individuals to participate in social, occupational, and recreational activities. Community mobility, d…
Do Transfemoral Prostheses With Powered Prosthetic Knee Flexion and Extension Improve Mobility? A Biomechanical Evaluation of the Ossur Power Knee
Microprocessor-controlled knees (MPKs) do not typically utilize motors to power joint rotation, but they automatically adjust resistance or damping in the join…
