Bio Leg: Advancing Mobility (BAM)

Adaptive Mobility Technology: A Comparative Study of C-Leg and Bio Leg

Sponsor

University of Florida

Enrollment

12 participants

Start Date

Jun 1, 2026

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Amputee Amputation Amputation of Lower Limb Above Knee

Summary

Following transfemoral amputation, regaining functional mobility, particularly the ability to navigate curbs, ramps, long distances, and the ability to stand is challenging and often unattainable. Use of advanced prosthetic limb technology can dramatically influence mobility outcomes. The purpose of this study is to compare walking function in individuals with transfemoral amputations who are current users of the C-leg (micro-processor controlled prosthetic knee; current clinical standard) to function achieved when using the Bio Leg powered micro-processor prosthetic knee.

Interventions

DEVICEBio Leg

After completing biomechanics and clinical testing at Pre Assessment with their C-Leg, participants will be fitted with a Bio-Leg prosthesis at the prosthetist clinic. The participant will train and use the Bio-Leg prosthesis during a 4-6 week acclimation period. The participant will then complete the same biomechanics and clinical testing at Post Assessment.
