Characterization of Residual Limb Volume Changes in Transfemoral Amputees

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study quantifies residual limb volume fluctuations affecting transfemoral amputees due to the prosthesis doffing, physical activity, and testing time.

Clinical Trial Description

The first test session aims at measuring residual limb volume at 7 time-points, with 10 minute intervals, after prosthesis doffing. This allows for evaluating the time required for volume stabilization after prosthesis removal, for each amputee. In subsequent sessions, 16 residual limb scans in a day for each amputee are captured to evaluate volume changes due to prosthesis removal and physical activity, in two times per day (one in the morning, one in the afternoon). These measurements are repeated in three different days, a week apart from each other, for a total of 48 scans for each amputee. ;
