Video feedback rehab for thigh lengthening surgery
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether using video feedback during physical therapy helps people recover better after cosmetic leg-lengthening surgery on both thighs. If you join, you'll get extra support by reviewing videos of your exercises to improve your recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 45 years old.

This study looks at how people's beliefs about pain and their physical function change after they've had cosmetic leg lengthening surgery. It observes patients during their regular follow-up visits to see if their pain beliefs relate to how well they can move and perform daily activities.
This study tests a rehabilitation program for people who had surgery to fix a broken thigh or shin bone with a metal rod. It aims to help you walk better and recover more fully after your injury.
This trial tests whether adding both psychological support and physical therapy check-ins before and after leg amputation improves recovery and rehab planning. It may help patients feel better and regain function during the transition to rehabilitation care.
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 approach to improve walking ability and leg function after an above-knee (transfemoral) amputation. It may help by targeting muscle loss and supporting safer, stronger mobility over time.
