Bionic ankle-foot prosthesis normalizes walking gait for persons with leg amputation.
Over time, leg prostheses have improved in design, but have been incapable of actively adapting to different walking velocities in a manner comparable to a biological limb. People with a leg amputation using such commercially available passive-elastic prostheses require significantly more metabolic energy to walk at the same velocities, prefer to walk slower and have abnormal biomechanics compa...
متن کاملComparing the Effects of Flexible and Rigid Ankle-Foot Orthoses on Balance/Walking Performance in Individuals With Multiple Sclerosis
Background: Ankle-Foot orthoses are used to minimize the impact of weakness in ankle dorsiflexion muscles. The study on different orthotic types defines the optimal design, which effectively improves the users’ mobility. This study investigated the potential benefits and risks of a Dictus-band (flexible orthotic), compared with a thermoplastic (fixed) ankle-foot orthosis on the mobility of indi...
متن کاملCheck the appropriate length of metatarsal pad On the reduction of Diabetic foot ulcer mechanical parameters while walking
Background: Standard prevention and treatment strategies to decrease peak plantar pressure include a total contact insert with a metatarsal pad, but no clear guidelines exist to determine optimal length of the pad with respect to the metatarsal head. The purpose of this study was to Check the appropriate length of metatarsal pad On the reduction of Diabetic foot ulcer mechanical parameters whil...
متن کاملFoot placement in a body reference frame during walking and its relationship to hemiparetic walking performance.
BACKGROUND Foot placement during walking is closely linked to the body position, yet it is typically quantified relative to the other foot. The purpose of this study was to quantify foot placement patterns relative to body post-stroke and investigate its relationship to hemiparetic walking performance. METHODS Thirty-nine participants with hemiparesis walked on a split-belt treadmill at their...
متن کاملWalking casts: effect on plantar foot pressures.
Pressure measurements were made at four sites on the right foot of six normal subjects while they walked in a standard shoe, conventional padded cast, total contact cast, and again in a shoe. No differences in mean relative pressure were found between the padded cast and the total-contact cast. Significant reductions in mean relative pressure were found between the standard shoe and walking cas...
