The Influence of Hydraulic Ankles and Microprocessor-Control on the Biomechanics of Trans-Tibial Amputees During Quiet Standing on a 5° Slope

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Lower limb amputees have a high incidence of comorbidities, such as osteoarthritis, which are believed to be caused by kinetic asymmetries. A lack of prosthetic adaptation to different terrains requires kinematic compensations, which may influence these asymmetries.METHOD: Six SIGAM grade E-F trans-tibial amputees (one bilateral) wore motion capture markers while standing on force plates, facing down a 5° slope. The participants were tested under three prosthetic conditions; a fixed attachment foot… Show more
