Official title
Does a Microprocessor-Controlled Prosthetic Knee Joint Improve Mobility and Quality of Life in K2-Level Veteran Ambulators?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Microprocessor-controlled knees (MPKs) automatically adjust resistance or damping in the joint to improve swing- and/or stance-phase control as appropriate for the prosthesis user during gait. The purpose of this proposed investigation is to determine if there are substantial physical and psychological benefits to fitting lower functioning Veteran ambulators having transfemoral amputations with an MPK compared with a nonmicroprocessor-controlled knee (NMPK). Using a repeated-measures, cross-sectional experimental design, approximately 20 Veterans with unilateral, transfemoral amputations will be evaluated on two separate occasions at the Jesse Brown VA Medical Center or the Edward Hines, Jr. VA Hospital, first with their conventional NMPK and then again after a 2-month accommodation period with the College Park Icon MPK.
