Clinical Trial: The Role of Visual Attention and Environmental Complexity in Real-world Mobility for People With Lower Limb Amputation

U.S., Sept. 22 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07831707) titled 'The Role of Visual Attention and Environmental Complexity in Real-world Mobility for People With Lower Limb Amputation' on Sept. 14.

Brief Summary: Despite high medical expenses (>$500K/patient), mobility improvements achieved during rehabilitation for people with lower limb amputation (LLA) fail to translate into improved real-world outcomes. Even with advances in prosthesis technology enabling faster gait speed, greater walking endurance, and improved mobility confidence, people with LLA report persistent dissatisfaction with real-world mobility, limited ability to walk in the community, and difficulty achieving recommended physi...
