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 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.
