Effects of walking speed on magnitude and symmetry of ground reaction forces in individuals with transfemoral prosthesis
Abstract
Individuals with unilateral transfemoral amputation (uTFA) walk asymmetrically. Investigating gait symmetry in ground reaction force (GRF) is critical because asymmetric loading on the residual limb can result in injury. The aim of this study was to investigate the GRF of individuals with uTFA by systematically controlling their walking at eight speeds(2.0-5.5 km/h with increments of 0.5 km/h) on a treadmill. Forty-eight individuals participated...
