Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if subthreshold vibration, when applied to the residual limb of a lower limb amputee through their prosthetic socket, can sufficiently enhance peripheral sensation to result in an improved ability to balance and walk.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Custom prosthetic socket with mechanical vibrators (stochastic resonance)
  • DEVICE Conventional prosthetic socket (current clinical practice)
