Mobility study for people with leg amputation
This study looks at how people with a leg amputation get around both walking and using a wheelchair or scooter. It aims to understand community mobility to help improve care and devices.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 18–85 - NCT07222085Recruiting
Long-term test of a new myoelectric control strategy
This trial tests a new way to control a powered prosthetic arm called Glide control. Researchers want to see if it stays reliable over time for people who have lost part of their arm below or above the elbow.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07075042Recruiting
Comparing two myoelectric arm control methods
This study compares two ways of controlling a muscle-powered (myoelectric) prosthetic arm to see which is easier on your attention and works better for daily tasks. It might help you find a more comfortable and effective way to use your prosthetic arm.

Gait training for veterans with leg amputations
This study tests a walking rehabilitation plan to improve how you walk after a lower-leg amputation. It may help if your walking steps are uneven and you have diabetes and/or circulation problems in your legs.
Richmond, VirginiaAges 40–89 - NCT05376332Enrolling by invitation
Testing a new arm prosthesis control and training approach
This study is testing different ways to control an arm prosthesis for people missing a hand or lower arm (transradial amputation). It may help compare how well people can use a myoelectric (muscle-signal) prosthesis using either direct control or pattern recognition.

What taking part in a amputation study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

- Do I have to live in Virginia to take part?
