Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Unilateral lower limb amputation at the transfemoral level
  • Existing prosthesis wearer
  • K2/K3/K4 level ambulation
  • 18-70 years old
  • Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) score greater than 17
  • Ability to demonstrate proper safety with passive prosthesis
  • Candidate for a myoelectric prosthesis (can generate mV level electromyographic EMG signals as detected by surface electrodes
  • Candidate for OI surgery as verified by surgical team or has previously received OI
  • Candidate for TMR surgery as verified by surgical team or has previously received TMR

Exclusion

  • Unable to successfully receive osseointegration and TMR
  • Significant new injury that would prevent use of a prosthesis: Ability to consistently wear prosthesis and perform activities of daily living and specific performance tasks is necessary to properly evaluate the relative benefits of the intervention
  • Cognitive impairment sufficient to adversely affect understanding of or compliance with study requirements, ability to communicate experiences, or ability to give informed consent: The ability to understand and comply with requirements of the study is essential in order for the study to generate useable, reliable data.
  • Visually impaired
  • Proximal nerve injury that prevents TMR
  • Individuals who smoke: may interfere with OI process from both bone healing and soft tissue standpoints
  • Individuals with active implants.
  • Significant comorbidity that would preclude completion of the study, use of prostheses, or would otherwise prevent data acquisition by researchers
