NCT03249883

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether the geriatric prosthetic foot 1M10 is superior to the classical SACH (Solid Ankle Cushion Heel) foot, when used by indoor ambulators with a transtibial amputation.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • Prosthetic satisfaction Questionnaire

    Hebrew satisfaction questionnaire

    Measured after 3 weeks

  • 10 meter walk test

    The participants will be asked to walk at their comfort pace 10 meters. The time of completing the task will be recorded

    Measured after 3 weeks

  • Get up and go test

    The participants will be asked to get up from a chair walk 3 meters turn around walk back to the chair and sit down. The time of completing the task will be recorded.

    Measured after 3 weeks

  • Prosthetic Satisfaction Questionnaire

    Hebrew satisfaction questionnaire

    Measured after 6 weeks

  • 10 meter walk test

    The participants will be asked to walk at their comfort pace 10 meters. The time of completing the task will be recorded

    Measured after 6 weeks

  • Get up and go test

    The participants will be asked to get up from a chair walk 3 meters turn around walk back to the chair and sit down. The time of completing the task will be recorded

    Measured after 6 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Gait patterns

    Measured after 3 weeks and

  • Gait patterns

    Measured after 6 weeks

Study Arms (2)

SACH first

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Will use a SACH foot for the first three weeks of prosthetic gait training , and a 1M10 foot for the second three weeks of prosthetic gait training

Device: SACH prosthetic foot, 1M10 prosthetic foot

1M10 first

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Will use a 1M10 foot for the first three weeks of prosthetic gait training , and a SACH foot for the second three weeks of prosthetic gait training

Device: SACH prosthetic foot, 1M10 prosthetic foot

Interventions

In the SACH first group - the amputees will wear the SACH feet for three weeks and then switch to 1M10 feet for another three weeks. In the 1M10 first group - the amputees will wear the 1M10 feet for three weeks and then switch to SACH feet for another three weeks.
