Brain and tech training after below-knee leg loss
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how your brain works with assistive technology after losing a leg below the knee. It may help researchers improve how prosthetic devices feel and function by measuring brain and movement signals during training.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a single (one) amputation below the knee
- You do not have any nerve or brain disease or disorder
- You must be otherwise healthy (not diabetic)
- You have the right activity level for walking with more demanding movements
- You should not have metal implants in your body for imaging or testing
- You should not have a bilateral amputation or an amputation of the arm
Quick eligibility check
Answer a few plain-language questions, based on this study's own requirements, to get a preliminary sense of fit.

This study tests whether a new prosthetic foot can help people with a lower-limb amputation walk better. You will use your current foot and the new foot, and we will measure how well you walk.
This study tests a new prosthetic leg controller that helps people with below-knee amputations walk more steadily and with better balance. You may be eligible if you have used a prosthetic leg for at least a year and are comfortable walking in the community.
This study tests whether a nerve-based “feedback” system can help people with below-knee or above-knee amputations during standing and walking. It focuses on whether the training and device setup are safe and workable for participants over the study period.
This study looks at how to better choose and train people with a new prosthetic foot after a below-knee amputation. It may help you find a foot that fits your needs and improve your walking.
This study tests whether a microprocessor-controlled knee can reduce falls in people who walk limited distances. If you use a regular mechanical knee and have a moderate activity level, this trial might help you walk more safely.
This trial tests a new powered leg prosthesis that you control with your own neural signals. It aims to help people with above-knee amputations walk more naturally in everyday situations.
