The Progression of Male 100 m Sprinting with a Lower-Limb Amputation 1976–2012
Sprinting with a lower-limb amputation over 100 m has taken place in the Paralympic Games for over three decades. The aim of this paper is to statistically evaluate the performances and participation levels of such athletes during this period. The level of performance improvement over a 36-year period was proposed to be significantly greater than the able-bodied equivalent. Coupled with this, a...
متن کاملSprinting with an amputation: Some race-based lower-limb step observations.
BACKGROUND T44 sprinting with an amputation is still in a state of relative infancy. Future scope for athletic training and prosthetic limb development may be assisted with a better understanding of information derived from T44 athletes when under race-based conditions. OBJECTIVES To investigate the behaviour of step count and step frequency when under competitive conditions. STUDY DESIGN T...
متن کاملLower limb amputation.
The decision to amputate is a difficult one, but in some cases, amputation can greatly improve the patient's quality of life. Jo Gibson discusses the nursing care of patients undergoing amputation, with a view to helping them adjust to their changed circumstances.
متن کاملEnergy conversion strategies during 100 m sprinting.
The aims of this study were to examine energy conversion strategies during 100 m sprinting and to determine whether there are opportunities for performance enhancement beyond the usual 'maximum effort throughout' strategy. The roles of aerodynamic drag and kinetic energy recovery on the overall whole-body energy balance are discussed. A mathematical model based on sprinting with maximum effort,...
متن کاملImproving the level of amputation of the lower extremity after therapeutic endovascular intervention for patients with critical limb ischemia
Methods: We conducted a comparative study of two groups of patients suffering from arterial insufficiency of the lower extremities, and the decision taken to amputate above the knee for both of them. A group of patients selected for a therapeutic peripheral intervention, and the effect of this intervention in improving the level of amputation studied and calculated statistically. The study cond...
