ADJUSTABLE PROSTHETIC SOCKETS FOR CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH LOWER LIMB LOSS TO ACCOMMODATE GROWTH - PEDIATRIC LIMB LOSS, ALTHOUGH RELATIVELY INFREQUENT COMPARED TO ADULTS, RESULTS IN SUBSTANTIAL HARDSHIP FOR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES. THE PRINCIPAL BUSINESS INTEREST IFIT PROSTHETICS, LLC® SUCCESSFULLY DEVELOPED AND MANUFACTURED INNOVATIVE, FULLY ADJUSTABLE, TRANSTIBIAL AND TRANSFEMORAL PROSTHETIC DEVICES, AND DEMONSTRATED THEIR SAFETY, COMFORT, AND FUNCTIONALITY IN ADULTS. MADE OF INJECTION-MOLDED, ADVANCED-POLYMER MATERIALS, THE IFIT PROSTHESES CAN BE MASS-PRODUCED AT A SIGNIFICANT COST ADVANTAGE RELATIVE TO CONVENTIONAL DEVICES. OUR OVERARCHING GOAL IN THIS PROJECT IS TO BRING SUCH TECHNOLOGY TO THE PEDIATRIC MARKET, WHERE EVIDENCE SUGGESTS AN ACUTE UNMET NEED FOR COMFORTABLE, AFFORDABLE PROSTHETIC DEVICES THAT CAN ACCOMMODATE LIMB GROWTH AND PREVENT SKIN BREAKDOWN AS THE CHILD DEVELOPS. SPECIFICALLY, OUR PHASE I, SPECIFIC AIM 1 IS TO DEVELOP ADJUSTABLE PROSTHETIC SOCKETS FOR CHILDREN WITH LIMB LOSS AND LIMB DEFICIENCY. PROTOTYPES USING PATENTED MECHANICAL CONCEPTS WITH PEDIATRIC COMPONENTRY WILL BE TESTED BY FIVE SUBJECTS UNDER AGE 12, AT LEAST TWO WITH TRANSFEMORAL AND TWO WITH TRANSTIBIAL LIMB LOSS. THROUGH A FEEDBACK-AND-REFINEMENT PROCESS, WE WILL IMPROVE THE PROTOTYPES UNTIL THE OPTIMAL DESIGN IS REACHED. EVALUATION OF PHASE I SUCCESS WILL BE BASED ON OBJECTIVE METRICS DEMONSTRATING WHETHER: I) THE FIVE SUBJECTS USE THE IFIT PROSTHESES AND AMBULATE COMFORTABLY, II) THEY AMBULATE WITHIN 10% OF THEIR WALKING SPEED WITH THEIR CONVENTIONAL DEVICES, AND III) THERE ARE LOWER INTRASOCKET PRESSURES WITH THE ADJUSTABLE PROTOTYPE DEVICES COMPARED TO THEIR CONVENTIONAL SOCKETS. PHASE II, SPECIFIC AIM 1 WILL DETERMINE THE COMFORT, EASE-OF-USE, AND PATIENT SATISFACTION WITH THE TRANSTIBIAL AND TRANSFEMORAL IFIT PEDIATRIC PROSTHESES AND ASSESS HOW WELL GROWTH IS ACCOMMODATED BY THE ADJUSTABLE DEVICE. TO THAT END, WE WILL CONDUCT A LONGITUDINAL, PROSPECTIVE, 8-WEEK TRIAL OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS AGED 3 TO 18 YEARS OLD WITH TRANSFEMORAL (20 SUBJECTS) AND TRANSTIBIAL (20 SUBJECTS) LIMB LOSS. SUBJECTS WILL RETURN AT SIX AND 12 MONTHS TO ASSESS HOW WELL GROWTH HAS BEEN ACCOMMODATED. KEY OUTCOMES INCLUDE: I) AGE-SPECIFIC, VALIDATED, SELF-REPORTED MEASURES OF PATIENT’S USE OF AND SATISFACTION WITH THE DEVICE AS COMPARED TO THEIR CONVENTIONAL PROSTHESIS, II) A QUALITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF PROSTHETISTS’ IMPRESSIONS REGARDING EASE-OF-FITTING, AND III) OBJECTIVE, QUANTITATIVE MEASURES OF FUNCTION AND USE (STEP MONITORING, ACTIVITY MONITORING, GAIT BIOMECHANICS, AND INTRA-SOCKET PRESSURES). PHASE II, SPECIFIC AIM 2 WILL ESTIMATE THE MARKET POTENTIAL OF IFIT AMONG CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS, QUANTIFY ASSOCIATED PROSTHETIC UTILIZATION AND COSTS, AND MODEL COST- EFFECTIVENESS FROM PAYER AND SOCIETAL PERSPECTIVES OF IFIT PROSTHESES RELATIVE TO CONVENTIONAL DEVICES. WITH ITS ADJUSTABLE DESIGN, THE IFIT DEVICE HOLDS GREAT PROMISE IN ADDRESSING THE WELL-DOCUMENTED LIMITATIONS OF CURRENT PEDIATRIC PROSTHETIC TECHNOLOGY— FREQUENT SKIN BREAKDOWN AND LIMB PAIN DUE TO ILL-FITTING PROSTHESES, HIGH OUT- OF-POCKET COSTS, AND HIGH TIME COSTS FOR CHILDREN AND THEIR FAMILIES IN SECURING NEW PROSTHESES TO ACCOMMODATE GROWING LIMBS—FOR THE LARGE NUMBER OF CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS LIVING WITH LIMB LOSS WORLDWIDE.

INNOVATIONS IN CRIMINAL JUSTICE SUMMIT /COMMUNITY PROSECUTION TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE

RESEARCH DEMONSTRATES THAT THE NEEDS AND EXPERIENCES OF SURVIVORS OF GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE, AND PARTICULARLY WOMEN OF COLOR, GO LARGELY UNADDRESSED BY THE TRADITIONAL CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM APPROACH TO VICTIM SERVICES. THROUGH THIS PROJECT, THE ASSOCIATION OF PROSECUTING ATTORNEYS (APA) WILL TARGET THESE SERVICE GAPS AND ADVANCE RACE EQUITY THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION OF SURVIVOR-DEFENDANT DIVERSION PROGRAMS. THESE PROGRAMS DIVERT CASES OF DEFENDANTS WHO ARE IDENTIFIED AS PRIOR GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE SURVIVORS FROM THE TRADITIONAL PROSECUTION TRACK, AND INSTEAD PROVIDE SERVICES AND OPPORTUNITIES TAILORED TO THE EXPERIENCES OF WOMEN OF COLOR. APA WILL PARTNER WITH PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AND RESEARCHERS TO ENSURE THE EFFICACY AND RELEVANCE OF PROJECT ACTIVITIES. APA AND BOWIE STATE UNIVERSITY (BSU) WILL COLLABORATE TO CREATE AND DISSEMINATE AN INITIAL FIELDWIDE SURVEY OF EXISTING SURVIVOR-DEFENDANT PROGRAMS THAT WILL IDENTIFY SERVICE/TRAINING GAPS AND PREFERENTIAL PRACTICES AND POLICIES. AT THE INCEPTION OF THIS PROJECT, APA WILL APPOINT AN ADVISORY GROUP COMPRISED OF KEY CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND VICTIM SERVICES STAKEHOLDERS. THIS GROUP WILL DEVELOP A ROBUST REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFPS) PROCESS TO IDENTIFY PROSECUTOR OFFICES FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF SURVIVOR-DEFENDANT DIVERSION PILOT PROGRAMS AND REVIEW THE SUBMITTED APPLICATIONS. UPON SITE SELECTION, THE GROUP WILL GUIDE PILOT SITE SELECTION AND PROJECT DEVELOPMENT. APA AND ITS PARTNERS WILL WORK WITH THE SELECTED SITES TO PLAN, IMPLEMENT, AND EVALUATE SURVIVOR-DEFENDANT DIVERSION PROGRAMS. APA WILL COLLABORATE OFTEN WITH THE PILOT SITES THROUGH ONLINE CHECK-INS AND IN PERSON SITE VISITS TO DRAFT PROGRAM POLICIES, CURATE RELATIONSHIPS WITH ONE OR MULTIPLE SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND INCORPORATE THE PERSPECTIVE OF INDIVIDUALS WITH LIVED EXPERIENCE INTO PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT. APA’S PARTNERSHIP WITH THE YWCA SEATTLE | KING | SNOHOMISH AND THEIR SURVIVORSFIRST PROGRAM WILL PROVIDE MODEL POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR SELECTED SITES TO DRAW FROM AS THEY ESTABLISH A SURVIVOR-DEFENDANT DIVERSION PROGRAM SPECIFIC TO THEIR JURISDICTIONAL NEEDS. AFTER ONE YEAR OF IMPLEMENTATION, APA AND BSU WILL CONDUCT AN EVALUATION OF THE PILOT PROGRAMS TO ENSURE PROGRAM EFFICACY AND IDENTIFY AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT. BY EXAMINING THE RESULTS WITH SITE LEADERS, A PLAN FOR BOTH PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT AND PROGRAM SUSTAINABILITY WILL ENSURE PROGRAMMATIC SUCCESS LONG AFTER THE GRANT PERIOD.  THROUGH THIS PROJECT, GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE SURVIVORS IN JURISDICTIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY WILL BE DIVERTED FROM THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM TO RECEIVE SERVICES TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR VICTIMIZATION. THIS PROJECT WILL ALLOW PROSECUTOR OFFICES AND VICTIM SERVICES TO SIMULTANEOUSLY ADVANCE RACE EQUITY, REDUCE RECIDIVISM FOR SURVIVORS, AND IMPROVE SAFETY IN THEIR COMMUNITIES.

A NOVEL PEDIATRIC PROSTHETIC FOOT FOR FUNCTIONAL MULTI-AXIAL MOBILITY DURING ACTIVE PLAY - PROJECT SUMMARY THE GOAL OF THIS SMALL BUSINESS INNOVATION RESEARCH (SBIR) DEVELOPMENT PROJECT IS TO ESTABLISH TECHNICAL MERIT, FEASIBILITY, AND POTENTIAL TO COMMERCIALIZE A MECHANICAL PROSTHETIC FOOT- ANKLE WITH NORMALIZED ANKLE RANGE OF MOTION (ROM) THAT CAN BE ADJUSTED TO MEET THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN DURING DIVERSE TYPES OF PLAY AND ACTIVITIES. THE TEAM PREVIOUSLY COLLABORATED ON A NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH (NIH)-FUNDED PROSTHETIC FOOT DEVELOPMENT PROJECT THAT RESULTED IN A COMMERCIALIZED PRODUCT (META ARC) AND PRODUCED MANY PEER-REVIEWED PUBLICATIONS. THE META ARC IS CURRENTLY THE ONLY COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE PROSTHETIC FOOT WITH A POLYCENTRIC ANKLE PROVIDING 20 DEGREES OF MEDIAL-LATERAL MOVEMENT FOR IMPROVED STABILITY ON UNEVEN TERRAIN. CONTINUING THE SUCCESSFUL COLLABORATION, THE TEAM WILL DEVELOP A PROSTHETIC FOOT SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR CHILDREN. CURRENT PROSTHETIC FEET ARE DESIGNED FOR ADULTS AND SOMETIMES ARE SIMPLY MINIATURIZED FOR CHILDREN. BECAUSE THE PRIMARY DESIGN TARGET POPULATION WAS ADULTS, THESE DESIGNS DO NOT MEET THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN. MOST CHILDREN'S PROSTHETIC FEET HAVE SIMILAR DESIGN FEATURES COMPARED TO ADULTS: A FLEXIBLE STRUT AND A COVERING. HOWEVER, CHILDREN ENGAGE IN ACTIVITIES ON UNEVEN TERRAIN WHERE ANKLE MOTION IS WARRANTED, AND IN DYNAMIC ACTIVITIES, SUCH AS HOPSCOTCH, WHERE MORE RIGID ANKLE MECHANICS ARE NEEDED. SIMPLE STRUTS DO NOT SUFFICIENTLY COVER THIS RANGE OF ACTIVITY. FURTHER, THERE ARE ADDITIONAL DESIGN CHALLENGES WITH CHANGES IN FOOT SIZE, HEIGHT, AND DURABILITY AS THE CHILD GROWS; THIS PROJECT WILL ADDRESS THESE CHALLENGES. DURING THIS PHASE I EFFORT, WE WILL COMPLETE A PEDIATRIC-SPECIFIC DESIGN OF A PROSTHETIC FOOT- ANKLE SYSTEM THAT CAN BE TUNED FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF PLAY. WHILE THE TEAM HAS FORMULATED INITIAL CONCEPTS BASED ON CONVERSATIONS WITH LEADING PEDIATRIC CARE CENTERS, STAKEHOLDER FOCUS GROUPS WILL HELP DEVELOP AND VALIDATE THE DESIGN CHOICES. THE STAKEHOLDERS WILL INCLUDE PEDIATRIC PATIENTS AND THEIR PARENTS/GUARDIANS, ADULTS WITH EXPERIENCE AS PEDIATRIC PATIENTS, AND PEDIATRIC PROSTHETISTS. STANDARDIZED MECHANICAL TESTING WILL CONFIRM THAT THE NOVEL PEDIATRIC DESIGN MEETS THE EXPECTED DURABILITY AND PERFORMANCE BENCHMARKS BEFORE MOVING INTO PHASE II. COMPLETION OF THIS STUDY IS EXPECTED TO YIELD AN EVOLVED PROTOTYPE DESIGN THAT IS SAFE FOR LONGER-TERM AT- HOME TRIALS OF THE SYSTEM. WE SEEK TO RESTORE CONFIDENCE AND FUNCTIONALITY BY CREATING A PROSTHETIC FOOT THAT SPONTANEOUSLY ADAPTS TO THE GROUND SURFACE GEOMETRY AND UNCERTAIN FOOT PLACEMENT. THE INNOVATIVE PEDIATRIC PROSTHETIC FOOT WILL IMPACT CHILDREN, WHO NEED TO BE ABLE TO MOVE FREELY. PARTICIPATION IN ACTIVE PLAY IS VITAL TO CHILDREN'S PHYSICAL, SOCIAL, AND PSYCHOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENT AND IS AN INDICATOR OF FUNCTION, HEALTH, AND QUALITY OF LIFE.

PURPOSE: THE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) PROGRAM PROVIDES ANNUAL GRANTS ON A FORMULA BASIS TO STATES, CITIES, AND COUNTIES TO DEVELOP VIABLE URBAN COMMUNITIES BY PROVIDING DECENT HOUSING AND A SUITABLE LIVING ENVIRONMENT, AND BY EXPANDING ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES, PRINCIPALLY FOR LOW- AND MODERATE-INCOME PERSONS. THE PROGRAM IS AUTHORIZED UNDER TITLE 1 OF THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974, PUBLIC LAW 93-383, AS AMENDED 42 U.S.C. 5301 ET SEQ. THE CDBG PROGRAM COVERS FOUR DISTINCT PROGRAMS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN SET OF GOVERNING REGULATIONS: CDBG ENTITLEMENT, CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII, CDBG INSULAR AREAS, AND STATE CDBG. IN THE CDBG ENTITLEMENT PROGRAM, HUD AWARDS GRANTS TO ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITY GRANTEES TO CARRY OUT A WIDE RANGE OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES. ENTITLEMENT COMMUNITIES DEVELOP THEIR OWN PROGRAMS AND FUNDING PRIORITIES. IN THE CDBG NON-ENTITLED COUNTIES IN HAWAII PROGRAM, THREE COUNTIES QUALIFY: HAWAII, KAUAI, AND MAUI. THE FY 2004 APPROPRIATIONS ACT REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR OF HAWAII TO DECIDE IF THE STATE WISHED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM BY JULY 31, 2004. THE STATE MADE THE DECISION NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. AS A RESULT OF THIS DECISION HUD'S HONOLULU FIELD OFFICE ADMINISTERS THE NON-ENTITLED GRANTS IN HAWAII. FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED USING A FORMULA BASED ON POPULATION, POVERTY, AND HOUSING OVERCROWDING, WITH THE POVERTY FACTOR CARRYING A DOUBLE WEIGHT. FOR THE CDBG INSULAR AREAS PROGRAM, HUD ANNUALLY ALLOCATES CDBG GRANTS TO FOUR DESIGNATED AREAS: AMERICAN SAMOA; GUAM; NORTHERN MARIANA ISLANDS; AND THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. THE FUNDS ARE ALLOCATED IN PROPORTION TO THE POPULATIONS OF THE ELIGIBLE TERRITORIES. THE PROGRAM IS ADMINISTERED BY HUD'S FIELD OFFICES IN PUERTO RICO AND HAWAII. UNDER THE STATE CDBG PROGRAM, STATES PASS THROUGH CDBG GRANTS TO UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT. ANNUALLY, EACH STATE DEVELOPS FUNDING PRIORITIES AND CRITERIA FOR SELECTING PROJECTS. SINCE STATES ARE IN THE BEST POSITION TO KNOW, AND TO RESPOND TO, THE NEEDS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENTS, CONGRESS AMENDED THE HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ACT OF 1974 (HCD ACT) IN 1981 TO GIVE EACH STATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO ADMINISTER CDBG FUNDS FOR NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS. NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS INCLUDE THOSE UNITS OF GENERAL LOCAL GOVERNMENT WHICH DO NOT RECEIVE CDBG FUNDS DIRECTLY FROM HUD. GENERALLY, NON-ENTITLEMENT AREAS ARE CITIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 50,000 (EXCEPT CITIES THAT ARE DESIGNATED PRINCIPAL CITIES OF METROPOLITAN STATISTICAL AREAS), AND COUNTIES WITH POPULATIONS OF LESS THAN 200,000. CURRENT CDBG AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS LIST OF HUD COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT (CPD) AWARDS AND ALLOCATIONS LOCATED AT: HTTPS://WWW.HUDEXCHANGE.INFO/GRANTEES/ALLOCATIONS-AWARDS/; ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED: CDBG FUNDS MAY BE USED FOR ACTIVITIES WHICH INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: ACQUISITION OF REAL PROPERTY; RELOCATION AND DEMOLITION; REHABILITATION OF RESIDENTIAL AND NON-RESIDENTIAL STRUCTURES; CONSTRUCTION OF PUBLIC FACILITIES AND IMPROVEMENTS, SUCH AS WATER AND SEWER FACILITIES, STREETS, NEIGHBORHOOD CENTERS, AND THE CONVERSION OF SCHOOL BUILDINGS FOR ELIGIBLE PURPOSES; PUBLIC SERVICES, WITHIN CERTAIN LIMITS; ACTIVITIES RELATING TO ENERGY CONSERVATION AND RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES; PROVISION OF ASSISTANCE TO PROFIT-MOTIVATED BUSINESSES TO CARRY OUT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND JOB CREATION/RETENTION ACTIVITIES.

TEXAS EMPOWERMENT INITIATIVE - PEER NETWORK, A COSP CERTIFICATION PROJECT - THE TEXAS EMPOWERMENT INITIATIVE – PEER NETWORK (TEI-PEER NETWORK) PROJECT MAKES QUALITY PEER SERVICES AVAILABLE TO PEOPLE WITH LIVED EXPERIENCE OF SERIOUS MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES BY DEVELOPING A CONSUMER OPERATED SERVICES PROGRAM (COSP) CERTIFICATION PROCESS BASED ON THE COSP FIDELITY ASSESSMENT COMMON INGREDIENTS TOOL (FACIT) AND THE CERTIFIED COMMUNITY BEHAVIORAL HEALTH CLINICS (CCBHC) PEER SERVICES AND TRAUMA INFORMED CARE REQUIREMENTS. IN DEVELOPING THE CERTIFICATION PROCESS, AN ADVISORY GROUP OF STATE PEER LEADERS WILL IDENTIFY GAPS IN THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF THE PEER SERVICES AND TRAUMA INFORMED CARE REQUIREMENTS OF CCBHC CERTIFICATION. THEY WILL BE GIVEN THE INFORMATION NEEDED TO FILL THOSE GAPS AND THEN THEY WILL SERVE AS A WORKGROUP TO DEVELOP THE STANDARDS NEEDED FOR THE COSP CERTIFYING PROCESS. THIS WILL ENSURE THAT COSPS WHO CHOOSE TO BE CERTIFIED MEET THE REQUIREMENTS TO BECOME DESIGNATED COLLABORATING ORGANIZATIONS (DCO) UNDER CCBHC. BY THE END OF THE PROJECT THERE WILL BE AT LEAST TWO CERTIFIED COSPS IN TEXAS. THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT THE PEER NETWORK, AN ORGANIZATION DEVELOPED TO SUPPORT AND GROW COSPS IN TEXAS, WILL PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS AND CONTINUE TO DEVELOP ITS INFRASTRUCTURE TO TAKE OVER THE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE AND CERTIFYING PROCESS AT THE END OF THE GRANT PERIOD. IN THE FIRST YEAR OF THE GRANT, MATERIAL RAISING AWARENESS OF CCBHC AMONG PEER PROVIDERS WILL BE DEVELOPED AND SHARED THROUGH EXISTING PEER NETWORKS AND OUTREACH OPPORTUNITIES. THIS WILL IMPACT PEOPLE RECEIVING SERVICES IN THE PUBLIC MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEM IN TEXAS, ROUGHLY 227,000. IT WILL ALSO IMPACT THE PEOPLE CURRENTLY RECEIVING SERVICES FROM COSPS IN TEXAS. THE TWO LARGEST COSPS SERVED OVER 2500 PEOPLE COMBINED. ALTHOUGH THIS PROJECT WILL BE COMPLETED IN 3 YEARS, THE IMPACT WILL CONTINUE AS NEW COSPS ARE CREATED TO MEET THE DEMAND FOR QUALITY PEER SERVICES IN TEXAS.

LIMBER UNILEG: A DIGITAL AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING APPROACH FOR ACCESSIBLE PROSTHETIC CARE. - SUMMARY THE TECHNOLOGY LIMBER AIMS TO PROVIDE IS AN ALL-INCLUSIVE SERVICE THAT ENABLES THE RAPID AND SCALED-UP MANUFACTURING OF CUSTOMIZED PROSTHETICS ON-DEMAND FOR AMPUTEES. THE WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION (WHO) ESTIMATES THAT OUT OF THE TENS OF MILLIONS OF AMPUTEES WORLDWIDE, ONLY 5% TO 15% HAVE ACCESS TO PROSTHETICS OR OTHER ASSISTIVE DEVICES. THE LACK OF WIDESPREAD AVAILABILITY IS BECAUSE MOST REHABILITATION DEVICES ARE DESIGNED AND HAND-CRAFTED BY PROSTHETISTS THROUGH A COMPLEX AND TIME-CONSUMING PROCESS. THIS PHASE I SBIR PROPOSAL WILL CONFIRM THE FEASIBILITY OF LIMBER’S PROSTHETIC DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING SYSTEM THAT OVERCOMES THE CUSTOM-CARE AND COST BARRIERS BY COMBINING THE LATEST IN 3D SCANNING, DIGITAL DESIGN, AND ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING TECHNOLOGIES TO INCREASE THE CAPACITY OF PROFESSIONAL PROSTHETISTS AND PROVIDE ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE AND FUNCTIONAL ‘UNIBODY’ TRANSTIBIAL PROSTHETIC LIMBS THAT ARE COMFORTABLE, LIGHTWEIGHT, AND AUTOMATICALLY FABRICATED. LIMBER’S PROCESS LEVERAGES THE STRUCTURED LIGHT SCANNING CAPABILITY EMBEDDED IN SMARTPHONES TO CREATE A DIGITAL TWIN OF AN AMPUTEE FROM THE WAIST DOWN. SCANNING CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED IN MINUTES BY A PROSTHETIST OR TRAINED TECHNICIAN, FURTHER IMPROVING EFFICIENCY AND ALLEVIATING BOTTLENECKS OF THE CONVENTIONAL PROCESS. THE DATA IS THEN TRANSFERRED TO LIMBER’S CLOUD, WHERE OUR SKILLED PROSTHETISTS TRANSFORM IT INTO A PERSONALIZED SINGLE-PIECE (SOCKET, PYLON, AND ANKLE-FOOT COMBINED) PROSTHETIC DEVICE THAT IS 3D PRINTED. AFTER WORKING WITH 15 LOWER-LIMB AMPUTEES, OUR PRELIMINARY FINDINGS INCLUDE A REDUCTION IN THE AVERAGE COST, WEIGHT, AND TIME OF PRODUCTION BY 79%, 55%, AND 66%, RESPECTIVELY.
