Clinical Trial Summary

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 conventional prosthetic socket. The primary objective of this study is to compare an adjustable and conventional prosthetic socket and use this information to determine the optimal socket that would improve rehabilitation and function in people with lower limb amputation.


Clinical Trial Description

The purpose of the project is to determine the effects of using different prosthetic socket designs with the same suspension and components on the biomechanical asymmetry, residual limb movement within the socket (socket pistoning) and comfort/satisfaction of 20 Veterans with a transtibial amputation and 20 Veterans with a transfemoral amputation, 10 males and 10 females per group. ;
