Summary

"This trial aims to test a new type of prosthetic foot designed for individuals with lower leg amputations. The goal is to see if this new prosthetic can provide similar benefits to those with longer

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with transtibial amputation who have long residual limbs and are in need of a prosthetic foot. It's designed to test if a new low-profile prosthetic can provide the same benefits as taller ones typically used by those with shorter residual limbs.
What is being tested?
The study is testing a novel layered low-profile prosthetic foot against prescribed ankles, aiming to offer enhanced compliance without losing strength. The goal is to see if it works well for people with longer below-knee amputations.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed, participants may experience discomfort or issues related to the fit and function of the new prosthesis compared to their current one.
