This research study will be looking at the benefits and time-frame benefits of 3D printing. The purpose of this is to prove how the data collected agrees with past research studies on how the integration of 3D printing technology into the field of orthotics and prosthetics is considered beneficial. Participant one was given two sets of 10 questions to find a statistical significance between a traditional transradial prosthesis and a 3D manufactured transradial prosthesis. By doing this I then compared participant one's answers to a similar survey given to participants two and three, then drew the connection of how it is much more beneficial while also accounting for confounding variables. Consequently, this study concluded that the majority of answers benefited the integration of 3D printing. It proved this by having the participant explain their answers and also compare a traditional prosthesis to a 3D printed prosthesis specifically explaining the time-frame difference and the benefits of having the digitally manufactured prosthesis. This indicated how my research did support the past research done on this specific topic on how it is beneficial that 3D manufacturing should be integrated into prosthetics and orthotics. This study is solely correlational and analyzed data, meaning, it does not actually prove anything but was simply done to show the connection of the topic. With the results of this research it will add more support to the current body of research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
