| Primary |
Pre-intervention:10 Meter Walk Test (10MWT) |
Assesses subject walking speed in meters per second for 10 meters. Subjects will repeat each measure 3 times at their normal self-selected walking speed and 3 times at a fast speed while still able to maintain safety. |
Week 12-13 |
|
| Primary |
Pre-intervention: 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT) |
The 6 minute walk test is performed as an objective evaluation of functional exercise capacity. The test measures the distance that the patient can walk on a flat, hard surface, indoors, in a period of 6 minutes. The walk test is patient self-paced and assesses the level of functional capacity. Patients are allowed to stop and rest during the test, however, the timer does not stop. If the patient is unable to complete the time, the time stopped is noted and reason for stopping prematurely is recorded. |
Week 12-13 |
|
| Primary |
Pre-intervention: Berg Balance Scale Test |
This test is a standardized 14-item objective measure of postural stability and static balance; it is an established fall predictor in adults. Balance is measured during various tasks on a 5 point scale, ranging from 0-4. "0" indicates the lowest level of function and "4" the highest level of function, with a total possible score of 56. A score of 20 or less indicates a high fall risk. |
Week 12-13 |
|
| Primary |
Post-intervention:10 Meter Walk Test (10MWT) |
Assesses subject walking speed in meters per second for 10 meters. Subjects will repeat each measure 3 times at their normal self-selected walking speed and 3 times at a fast speed while still able to maintain safety. |
Week 24-25 |
|
| Primary |
Post-intervention: 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT) |
The 6 minute walk test is performed as an objective evaluation of functional exercise capacity. The test measures the distance that the patient can walk on a flat, hard surface, indoors, in a period of 6 minutes. The walk test is patient self-paced and assesses the level of functional capacity. Patients are allowed to stop and rest during the test, however, the timer does not stop. If the patient is unable to complete the time, the time stopped is noted and reason for stopping prematurely is recorded. This test will be administered while wearing a mask to measure oxygen consumption. |
Week 24-25 |
|
| Primary |
Post-intervention: Berg Balance Scale Test |
This test is a standardized 14-item objective measure of postural stability and static balance; it is an established fall predictor in adults. Balance is measured during various tasks on a 5 point scale, ranging from 0-4. "0" indicates the lowest level of function and "4" the highest level of function, with a total possible score of 56. A score of 20 or less indicates a high fall risk. |
Week 24-25 |
|
| Primary |
Delayed post-intervention:10 Meter Walk Test (10MWT) |
Assesses subject walking speed in meters per second for 10 meters. Subjects will repeat each measure 3 times at their normal self-selected walking speed and 3 times at a fast speed while still able to maintain safety. |
Week 40-41 |
|
| Primary |
Delayed post-intervention: 6 Minute Walk Test (6MWT) |

| Secondary |
Pre-intervention: Amputee Mobility Predictor (AMP) |
The AMP is a tool used to predict the ambulatory potential of lower limb amputees, and measure function post-rehabilitation. It was developed to provide a more objective approach to rating amputees under the various K Classifications. The test can be performed with or without the prosthesis. The test involves activities of transfers, balance and walking. Score is out of 39 with each item scored in the range of 0-2. |
Week 12-13 |
|
| Secondary |
Pre-intervention: Modified Falls Efficacy Scale (mFES) |
The mFES is self-report questionnaire consisting of 14 items which is designed to measure fear of falling in the elderly. It assesses an individual's perception of balance during activities of daily living by asking "how confident are you that you can do the following activities without falling." |
