Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to test a low cost, non-invasive, wearable near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) sensor, previously validated for able-bodied athletes as a rehabilitation aid for war-fighters with lower extremity limb loss. This sensor can record real-time physiologic data that relates to total fitness capacity and exertion levels and may help develop individualized programs on a per-patient basis. The uniqueness of this NIRS measurement system is that it provides real-time muscular oxygenation, dehydration, and iron status during whole-body exercise, as well as training-induced adaptations. Currently, no technology like this has been tested in an amputee population. Successfully validating this technology in a wounded warrior population would provide vital information regarding tissue perfusion after injury and new opportunities for improving rehabilitation outcomes.
