Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of functional electrical stimulation (FES) for trans-tibial amputees. The investigators aim to demonstrate that providing three months of FES intervention will increase knee extension strength, increase volume of the residual limb and decrease chronic and phantom pain.

Primary Outcome

Residual limb knee extension isometric strength was tested using a standardized Biodex protocol and custom attachment. The lever arm of the Biodex was positioned at 60 degrees of knee flexion, with the support cushion modified for the amputee and positioned at the mid-tibia. The participant was asked to extend their knee against the arm as hard as they could for five seconds.
