Clinical Trial Summary

The goals of this study are to assess measured, observed, and self-reported outcomes achieved through the use of passive (mechanical), active(motorized) and adaptive (magnetorheological) prosthetic knee control systems in individuals with unilateral, transfemoral amputation.


Clinical Trial Description

An interrupted time-series trial with pre/post baseline assessments, randomized crossover of interventions, and within-phase repeated measures is used to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of the Össur Power Knee II and the Össur Rheo Knee in individuals with unilateral, transfemoral amputation. A rigorous and clinically-meaningful experimental protocol is applied to verify study participants receive appropriate training, experience, and assessment in each knee condition. A suite of standardized and ad-hoc physical performance tests, patient-reported questionnaires, and monitoring technologies were carefully selected to assess important, clinically-relevant participant outcomes. Comparative effectiveness of three prosthetic knee interventions are evaluated using direct measurement (i.e., timed tests), observed clinical ratings (i.e., subjective assessments of gait quality) and self-report instruments (i.e., health status surveys). Analyses will focus on identifying differences between control system technologies inherent to each type of prosthetic knee (i.e., passive [mechanical], adaptive [magnetorheological], and active [power]). Outcomes will be used to establish recommendations for which activities and patients knees are most appropriate or likely to produce a desired effect. ;
