NCT ID: NCT04326712 Active, not recruiting - Transtibial Amputee Clinical Trials

The Effect of Different Measurement-manufacturing Techniques on Load Distribution in Amputees

Start date: September 6, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Alignment of the prosthesis with the stump is performed through the socket. Good socket stump fit provides near-normal posture and weight-transfer pattern. It also ensures that the walk is painless and low-energy. Recently, studies have been carried out to use 3D printers in socket production. 3D method is accepted as an effective and reliable method in prosthetic socket production. The purpose of this study is to compare the pressures distrubution in the sockets produced by conventional and 3D scanners and printers in the transtibial amputee.

NCT ID: NCT03164356 Completed - Transtibial Amputee Clinical Trials

Bioimpedance as a Diagnostic Tool for Assessing the Need for Socket Modification in Transtibial Amputees

Start date: November 9, 2016
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of the proposed study is to conduct research on individuals with lower limb amputation, evaluating if residual limb fluid volume data collected using a novel non-invasive device is beneficial towards prosthetic prescription, fit, and comfort as determined by amputee test subjects and practitioners (prosthetists). Participants' residual limb fluid volume will be monitored through bioimpedance analysis both before and after a practitioner-issued modification to the prosthesis as an observational cohort study and then as a blinded randomized control trial in which the data may or may not be shared with the practitioner before the modification is made to the prosthesis.
