Why Transfemoral Amputation Ins tead of Knee Disarticulation?
Öz
The
aim of this study is to determine gait patterns of the knee disarticulation
(KD) and transfemoral (TF) amputee using
microprocessor prostheses and c ompare to normal gait. Two amputees and eight healthy person (control
group) participa ted in this study. Knee joint was a C-leg, while the foot was Axion foot in
both prosthetic u sers. Three-dimensional gait analysis was performed via Vicon Nexsus motion
analysis system. Results of studied, asymmetries
that differences in results between
prosthetic side and sound side higher in knee disarticulation patients.
