Summary

To date, there is no valid and reliable measure of continuous inter-limb stability available to healthcare teams treating people with lower limb loss. Determining these characteristics of this parameter for this population is important because superior stability has been linked to increased physical activity and strength in similar populations, making it a potential vital contributor to mobility improvement of Veterans with limb loss. It is also crucial that healthcare providers can easily measure continuous stability in the clinic instead of relying on expensive laboratory equipment. The overall goals of this study are to determine the reliability and validity of continuous inter-limb stability of Veterans with lower limb loss and determine if this parameter can be captured using accessible wearable technology. Consequently, clinicians can improve continuous stability through proper rehabilitation to positively impact the functional mobility and overall quality of life of Veterans with lower limb loss.
