Liberating Technologies (LTI), Holliston, Massachusetts, the research branch of College Park Industries, Warren, Michigan, has been awarded a contract totaling $1,999,938 from the United States Department of Defense. The funding will be used to explore the ability of limb cooling to improve skin health and quality of life in people with lower limb loss. The funding includes LTI partner Vivonics, a biomedical engineering technology development firm in Bedford, Massachusetts.

For the next four years, Todd Farrell, PhD, co-principal investigator and LTI director of research, will collaborate with Ryan Myers, PhD, co-principal investigator from Vivonics, Sarah Kohler-McNicholas, PhD, Minneapolis Veteran’s Administration, and Brian Kaluf, CP, FAAOP, Ability Prosthetics and Orthotics, headquartered in Exton, Pennsylvania.

The project, “Clinical Effectiveness of Intra-socket Cooling on Incidence and Severity of Dermatological Conditions in Lower Limb Amputees,” is funded by the Congressionally Directed Medical Research Program’s and Orthotics and Prosthetics Outcomes Research Program’s Clinical Trial Award.

“We have previously been able to demonstrate that the ICE [Intra-socket Cooling Element] system is capable of providing clinically relevant cooling of the residual limb outside of the laboratory in the real-world, everyday environment. This new funding will allow us to take the next step toward improving skin health and overall quality of life for individuals living with limb loss,” said Farrell. 

Individuals interested in participating in the clinical trial should visit https://liberatingtech.com/research-studies/ for more information.
