Light-Based device may predict amputation healing
NCT ID NCT02551484
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tested whether a device that uses near-infrared light (NIRS) can measure blood flow in the remaining leg after a below-knee amputation better than the standard method (TcPO2). Researchers planned to include 50 patients in two groups: those with a permanent prosthetic leg and those still in early rehabilitation. The goal was to see if NIRS could predict wound healing more accurately. However, the study was terminated early, so results are limited.
