Subjects were expected to have an 8-week accommodation time to wear the definitive version of the NU-FlexSIV Socket.
The order was not randomized and subjects were first tested in the socket to which they were already accustomed to avoid the additional accommodation time that would otherwise be required.
Nine subjects were interviewed following their accommodation time in the NU-FlexSIV Socket, regardless of the length of accommodation time or completion of testing (four completed the study and five dropped out (Table 1)).
The required accommodation time of 8 weeks in the NU-FlexSIV Socket likely contributed to the large number of dropouts in this population of service members who encountered conflicting active duty demands during study participation.
