NCT ID NCT07677969

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled

Summary

This observational study looks at how the percentage of arm loss in people with a single upper-limb amputation relates to balance, neck and back pain, daily activities, and reaction time. Participants aged 18 to 65 who use a myoelectric or bionic prosthesis will undergo non-invasive tests like posture analysis and reaction-time tasks. The goal is to better understand functional changes and guide future rehabilitation strategies.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could improve rehabilitation plans for people with upper limb amputation by clarifying how the extent of limb loss affects daily function and pain.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study with only 15 participants, so findings may not apply to everyone. It measures associations, not causes, and does not test any treatment.

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

This study population consists of adults aged 18-65 years with unilateral upper limb amputation who use a myoelectric or bionic prosthesis. Participants are recruited from clinical and rehabilitation settings and meet predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. All individuals undergo a single-session assessment to evaluate postural control, pain, daily living activities, hand function, and reaction time.
