Summary

This study follows 70 people who have lost a lower limb due to diabetes or vascular disease. It looks at how they adjust physically and emotionally over time. Some participants will receive a standard rehab program, while others will also use technology-based exercises. The goal is to see if the new approach improves mobility, independence, and quality of life.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Multidisciplinary conventional and technology-based rehabilitation
What this could lead to: If successful, this could point toward better rehabilitation programs that improve mobility, independence, and emotional well-being for people with lower limb amputations.
What could go wrong: This is an early-stage study with only 70 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The technology-based rehab may not be more effective than standard care.
