The survey will take five to ten minutes to complete and has been approved by the University of Michigan Health Sciences and Behavioral Sciences Institutional Review Board. The researchers are interested in gauging how familiar clinicians are with adjustable prosthetic sockets, and what kinds of benefits and/or challenges they have experienced when using the sockets with their patients.
