Design and Evaluation of a Biarticular Prosthesis to Reduce Gait Compensations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of this Career Development Award is to improve the mobility and quality of life of veterans with transtibial amputation through the development of a novel biarticular prosthesis. (Image source<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robotic Knee Exoskeleton to Reduce Joint Loading and Improve Mobility in Veterans with Medial Compartment Knee Osteoarthritis<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of this project was to create a new class of robotic knee exoskeletons that utilized these 21st century advances to improve the efficacy, comfort, and performance of knee unloader braces. (Image source<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3D Printed Diabetic Insole<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of the custom insole is to cushion the feet, evenly distribute pressures, and to selectively offload areas of increased pressure.\u00a0Advances in 3D printing, materials, and software have enabled new 3D printed metamaterials whose properties are derived not only from the base material but also from lattice microstructures within the metamaterial.\u00a0 We are proposing to redesign diabetic insoles to use 3D printing with patient-specific stiffness and structural behavior. The purpose of this study is to determine if the 3D printed insoles are better at reducing plantar pressures than the traditional insoles. The results of this study can help reduce annual rates of lower limb loss within our Veteran population.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Biofeedback Smart Cane to Reduce Knee Loading Associated with Osteoarthritis<\/strong>

The aim of this project was to accelerate the commercialization and clinical translation of the smart cane, a novel cloud connected walking cane for people with knee osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Do Rocker Bottom Shoes and Ankle-Foot Orthoses Reduce Pain and Improve Mobility for Ankle Osteoarthritis Patients?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This clinical trial compared the efficacy of rocker bottom shoes and ankle-foot orthoses to manage ankle osteoarthritis in terms of mobility, pain, and bone motion as measured with biplane fluoroscopy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
