Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
It is expected that these results will be used to generate new knowledge for the development of versatile prosthetic devices that accommodate a user's unique lifestyle while helping the patient to make good progress in rehabilitation.
Investigators will characterize perceived limitations in footwear among women prosthesis users. Investigators think that women prosthesis users will be restricted in footwear choices and clothing choices due to the use of a prosthetic device.
Specifically, investigators expect perceived limitations in footwear will be greater for shoes with higher heels than shoes without heels.

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The questionnaire will target the types of footwear worn by prosthesis users and the types of footwear desired to be worn. It will also capture the various types of prosthetic feet worn in each footwear category, amputation type, time spent walking in a prosthetic device, and general satisfaction with the prosthesis function during daily living when worn with shoes.
