New training aims to fix uneven walking in leg prosthesis users
NCT ID NCT05695911
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a 40-week biofeedback training program can help people with a leg prosthesis (attached directly to the bone) walk with more equal weight on both legs. Fifteen participants will either receive the training or standard education. Researchers will measure feasibility, balance, and daily activity to see if the approach is worth testing in larger trials.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
limb-load biofeedback training
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a standard training method to help people with leg prostheses walk more symmetrically and reduce long-term joint problems.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 15 expected completers. The training is behavioral, so results may vary widely and may not apply to all amputees.
