Quantifying the regional load-bearing ability of trans-tibial stumps.
This paper reports findings of experiments aiming to (1) compare the load tolerant ability over different regions of stumps of lower limb amputees, (2) study the effect of walking on the load tolerant ability, and (3) examine the distal-end weight-bearing ability supported by different interface materials. The method was to apply increasing load to the stump up to the pain level through a force...
متن کاملRegional load bearing of the canine acetabulum.
OBJECTIVE To determine the load bearing areas of the canine acetabulum. MATERIALS AND METHODS A kinematic study of four healthy dogs was used to determine the orientation of the femur to the pelvis at mid-stance. Femora and pelves from 10 canine cadavers were loaded with the physiological canine hip reaction force and angle being replicated. Impression material placed within the acetabulum wa...
متن کاملSuspension effect and dynamic evaluation of the total surface bearing (TSB) trans-tibial prosthesis: a comparison with the patellar tendon bearing (PTB) trans-tibial prosthesis.
X-ray and cineradiography measurements were used to compare the suspension effect and stability of a TSB trans-tibial prosthesis with an Icelandic Roll-On Silicone Socket (ICEROSS) system to that of a PTB trans-tibial prosthesis. The suspension effect was measured by the distance between the tibia and the socket in both suspension position and weight-bearing position in both type of prostheses....
متن کاملWeight bearing and velocity in trans-tibial and trans-femoral amputees.
The purpose of this study was to review the clinical utility of static weight bearing (SWB) and maximal self-selected ambulatory velocity as objective quantifiable measures in an outpatient lower limb prosthetic clinic. Seventy-three (n = 73) consecutive trans-tibial (TTA) and trans-femoral amputees (TFA) attending an outpatient prosthetic clinic were studied. Prosthetic weight bearing was meas...
