What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Stiffness and the index of anthropomorphicity IAm

    Range of ankle stiffnesses, including three prostheses currently recommended to patients with direct skeletal attachment

    Measured: 30 days

  2. IAb of the selected prosthetic feet

    To establish IAb of the selected prosthetic feet via biomechanical gait testing

    Measured: 30 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Testing of Methodology of Attachment of External Foot Prothesis Based on Anthropomorphism Criteria, run by PolyOrth International.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Mark Pitkin, PhD (339-364-1955, Mark Pitkin <m.pitkin@yahoo.com>), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Stiffness and the index of anthropomorphicity IAm (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Jun 2022.
