A Biomechanical Analysis of Amputee Athlete Gait
The aims of the present study were to quantify lower limb kinetics and kinematics during walking and slow jogging of below-knee amputee athletes and to demonstrate the usefulness of the additional information provided by kinetic analyses as compared to that of kinematic assessments alone. Kinematic and force platform data from three amputee subjects were collected while the subjects walked and ...
متن کاملDynamic analysis of above-knee amputee gait.
BACKGROUND It is important to understand the characteristics of amputee gait to develop more functional prostheses. The aim of this study is to quantitatively evaluate amputee gait by dynamic analysis of the musculoskeletal system during level walking and stair climbing. METHODS Dynamic analysis using gait analysis, electromyography and musculoskeletal modeling for above-knee amputees (n=8) a...
متن کاملGait training for the below-knee amputee.
Introduction Statistics show that the real incidence of amputa t ion occurs between 60 and 75 years (Kay & N e w m a n , 1975). Hence most of the time the therapist is dealing with older patients who have a poor vascular condition which is often accompanied by other complications such as diabetes , hypertension or cerebro-vascular accidents. The level of amputat ion is highly dependab le on tis...
متن کاملDetection of Alzheimer’s Disease in Elder People Using Gait Analysis and Kinect Camera
Introduction: Gait analysis through using modern technology for detection of Alzheimer's disease has found special attention by researchers over the last decade. In this study, skeletal data recorded with a Kinect camera, were used to analyze gait for the purpose of detecting Alzheimer's disease in elders. Method: In this applied-developmental experimental study, using a Kinect camera, data wer...
متن کاملSocket Flexion and Gait of an Above-knee, Bilateral Amputee.
1 Chief, Bioengineering Laboratory, Veterans Administration Prosthetics Center, 252 Seventh Ave., New York 1, N. Y. M ANY factors affect the gait of an aboveknee, bilateral amputee as he walks on his prostheses. Among the factors are his general health and strength, the length and condition of his stumps, the alignment of his prostheses, his comfort, and the type of knee units employed. While s...
