The goal of this research is to create a multi-channel bioimpedance analysis system to monitor regional fluid volume changes in residual limbs of soldiers, veterans, and civilians using prosthetic limbs. Clinical research studies are conducted to evaluate state-of-the-art volume management devices, and to evaluate the use of volume feedback control towards enhancing limb fluid volume stability and patient satisfaction.
