Joint Moments of Unilateral Transfemoral Amputees Using Running-specific Prosthesis during Sprinting
The aim of this study was to investigate the bilateral difference of the joint moments between an intact leg (INT) and a prosthetic leg (PST) in unilateral transfemoral amputees (TFAs) wearing running-specific prosthesis during sprinting. Eight sprinters with unilateral TFAs performed maximal sprinting on a 40-m runway with 7 force platforms located in between. Hip and knee joint extension and ...

متن کاملRunning patterns of transfemoral amputees: a clinical analysis.
The challenge of rehabilitating young, healthy transfemoral amputees may extend beyond the boundaries of teaching them to adapt to functional activities of daily living. The goal for several of these amputees is to participate and sometimes even compete in recreational activities, including running. These amputee runners require prosthetic adaptations as well as a comprehensive individualized t...
متن کاملLower extremity joint kinematics of stair ascent in transfemoral amputees.
BACKGROUND Stair ascent is a very demanding task for transfemoral amputees (TFAs). The purpose of this study was to investigate the lower extremity joint kinematics of TFAs who can climb stairs using a step-over-step gait pattern without an active artificial prosthetic knee joint or handrail use. CASE DESCRIPTION AND METHODS Case series. Participants were two traumatic TFAs and 10 control par...
متن کاملA field evaluation of arm prostheses for unilateral amputees.
A post-clinical investigation has been carried out among 42 unilateral amputees who lost their hand due to an accident. The investigation was directed at two main topics of interest. Firstly the amputee, the problems he has to cope with, and the role the prosthesis plays in his life; and secondly the prosthesis, its use and its potential benefits and burdens. The group of amputees consisted of ...
