New prosthetic devices put to the test: can they improve walking and balance after leg amputation?
NCT ID NCT07094074
First seen Jul 17, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how people with lower-limb amputations (below or above the knee) move, balance, and use energy when trying out new prosthetic devices. Up to 100 participants will complete walking tests, balance checks, and questionnaires over two visits. The goal is to see if modern, CE-marked prosthetics can improve everyday function compared to their usual equipment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- new prosthetic devices (CE-marked) including walk tests, balance analysis, and questionnaires
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could show that newer prosthetic devices help people with leg amputations walk better and feel more stable.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early exploratory study with no control group, so results may not prove which device is best. Individual outcomes can vary widely.
