Justerbare protesestikker
Justerbare sokler til veteraner med underkropsamputation: Patientrapporterede resultater og tryk inden i soklen
Hvert år omkring 1500 veteraner slutter sig til de 623.000 amerikanere, der lever med en amputation af underkroppen. Mange af disse veteraner vælger den anstrengende vej til rehabilitering for at forblive gående, en proces, der omfatter ordination af en protese til underkroppen. Meget afhænger af, hvor godt deres protese sidder. En god pasform føles behagelig og muliggør en række gående aktiviteter. En dårlig pasform resulterer i ubehag, ofte ledsaget af kroniske hudproblemer, og daglige aktiviteter bliver begrænset.
Konventionelle proteseskåle er skræddersyet af en dygtig protesemager, omhyggeligt formede for at passe til veteranens stump, og der kan normalt opnås en god pasform. Disse skåle er stive, fast formede strukturer med en bulldozers robusthed, bygget til vedvarende, tung belastning. Desværre kan formen på en persons stump ændre sig over tid, så en god pasform med tiden bliver dårlig. Et estimat antyder, at en ny skål under knæet er nødvendig hvert tredje et halvt år. Udgifterne til udskiftning af skåle, der ikke længere passer, er ikke ubetydelige. Medicare-udgifter til udskiftning af eksisterende skåle under knæet og tilhørende komponenter blev estimeret til 50 millioner dollars i 2017. Vigtigt er, at Medicare estimeres at udgøre kun 20 % af markedet, hvilket antyder, at de estimerede udgifter for hele befolkningen med amputationer af underkroppen sandsynligvis er betydeligt større. En velpassende protese, der bevarer sin pasform over tid, ville tjene veteraner godt.
En potentiel løsning, der kunne få en god pasform til at vare længere, er en justerbar proteseskål. Selvom der er begrænset evidens til at støtte ordinationspraksis, har Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for nylig autoriseret refusion for justerbare proteseskåle, hvilket antyder et stort behov for et sådant produkt.
For at undersøge potentialet for skadelige virkninger og hvordan veteraner muligvis bruger justerbare proteseskåle, er formålet med denne forskning at bestemme trykket på stumperne fra en justerbar proteseskål under aktiviteter af varierende intensitet og de aktiviteter, der udløser justeringer.
Der vil blive gennemført et laboratoriebaseret forsøg med menneskelige forsøgspersoner ved hjælp af en brugerdefineret sensor placeret inde i det justerbare panel i en justerbar proteseskål leveret af studiet. Deltagere vil vænne sig til den justerbare proteseskål i to uger i feltet og derefter vende tilbage til laboratoriet for at udføre syv aktiviteter. Trykket inde i protesen vil blive målt under disse aktiviteter. Deltagere vil også rapportere, hvor stramt deres skål føles efter hver aktivitet.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
Protesesokler, der muliggør ambulatorisk mobilitet for veteraner med amputation af nedre ekstremitet, er typisk stive, overdrevet stærke strukturelle elementer med fast form, der fungerer som grænsefladen mellem kroppen og omgivelserne. En veterans protesesokkel er skræddersyet; den er beregnet til at passe én person og kun én person.
Ændringer i pasform efter udleveringen af en protese er mere almindelige end ikke. Ændringer relateret til kropsmasse, muskelatrofi eller personlig fitness kan ske over måneder, mens ændringer på grund af kost eller diabetiske komplikationer kan ske på timer. Hvis uoverensstemmelsen i form mellem den resterende lemstump og soklen er lille, kan veteranen håndtere forskellen ved at tage på eller tage af resterende lemstrømper. Denne tilgang er ikke ideel, da nogle patienter er mere tilbøjelige til at anvende praksissen end andre. Hvis uoverensstemmelsen i form er stor, kræves der normalt en ny protesesokkel. Uanset om den er lille eller stor, kan manglende håndtering af ændringer negativt påvirke deres brug af protesen og sundheden af deres resterende lemstump.
På trods af dens begrænsninger har den fastformede protesesokkel været standardbehandlingen i årtier. Imidlertid fandt en potentielt betydningsfuld begivenhed sted i april 2024, da Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) autoriserede refusion for justerbare protesesokler. Selvom den nye autorisation muliggør betaling for dens udlevering, er der lille evidens til at hjælpe patienter, udbydere og betalere med at forstå de potentielle resultater af at ordinere en justerbar protesesokkel.
Formålet med denne forskning er at afdække, hvordan veteraner bruger justerbare protesesokler ved at måle trykket påført den resterende lemstump af en justerbar protesesokkel under aktiviteter af varierende intensitet og identificere, hvilke aktiviteter der kan fremkalde en justering. Forskerne vil rekruttere ambulatoriske veteraner med unilaterale transtibiale amputationer (n = 25) og tilpasse dem med en justerbar protesesokkel.
Deltagere vil bære en instrumenteret justerbar protesesokkel efter at have båret en ikke-instrumenteret duplikat justerbar protesesokkel i to uger. Deltagere vil få lov til at gå rundt i 5 til 10 minutter, mens forskningsprotetikeren kontrollerer pasform og justering af studieprotesen. Trykmålinger vil derefter blive indsamlet mens man sidder, står og går. Stående og gående aktiviteter vil blive udført i tilfældig rækkefølge, afbrudt af 1-minutters sidende pauser, hvor deltageren vil frigive trykket på det justerbare panel. Gå-forsøgene vil blive udført på et løbebånd.
- Siddende pause 5 min
Tilfældig rækkefølge med 1 min siddende pause mellem hver:
- Stå 1 min
- Gå med selvvalgt hastighed 1 min
- Gå op ad 10% stigning med selvvalgt hastighed 1 min
- Gå ned ad 10% stigning med selvvalgt hastighed 1 min
- Gå 15% hurtigere end selvvalgt hastighed 1 min
- Gå med selvvalgt hastighed 10 min Lige før starten af hver aktivitet vil deltageren blive fortalt, hvad den næste aktivitet er, og bedt om at justere deres sokkel i overensstemmelse hermed. Deltagere vil også være frie til at foretage justeringer under en aktivitet. I denne situation vil varigheden af aktiviteten blive forlænget, således at der er 1 minut af aktiviteten tilbage ved den nye justeringsindstilling. Ved afslutningen af hver aktivitet vil stramheden blive vurderet ved hjælp af et spørgeskemaspørgsmål. Specifikt vil forskerne efter hver aktivitet bede hver deltager om at vurdere stramheden af deres justerbare protesesokkel i øjeblikket på en skala fra 0 til 10.
Generelt antager forskerne, at trykket påført den resterende lemstump vil afhænge af aktiviteten, ligesom stramheden vil gøre det.

Eksperimentel: Justerbar protesehylster
Deltagerne vil bære en justerbar protesesokkel.
|
Undersøgerne vil fremstille og samle en justerbar protesestøtte til hver deltager, hvis form er en kopi af deres eksisterende, ordinerede protesestøtte.
Vi vil tilføje tre justerbare paneler til protesestøtten, som vil være placeret over den mediale og laterale proximale tibia-region samt den posteriore gastrocnemius-region.
Panelernes position kan justeres ind og ud ved hjælp af en kabelmekanisme.
