First seen May 21, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether a motorized artificial leg helps people with amputation walk faster, balance better, and move more easily during everyday tasks like climbing stairs or walking on slopes. About 20 adults, with or without an amputation, will compare their mobility with and without the motorized leg. The goal is to see if the powered device improves movement and to identify any problems that come up.
