Variability of kinetic variables during gait in unilateral transtibial amputees
Original language description
Background: Prosthetic gait increases demands on stability. Some variability measures can be used to investigate the stability of movement for prosthetic feet. Objectives: The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of the prosthetic foot onground reaction force variability for transtibial amputee gait. Study Design: Comparative analysis. Methods: Eleven male unilateral transtibial amputees participated in this study. Each subject walked at self-selected speed with both conventional (SACH)and energy storing (Sureflex) feet. Time and ground reaction force variables and their coefficients of variation were calculated for each foot type and limb. Results: Mediolateral force variables had high variability for all conditions. The Sureflex hada larger variability than the SACH foot for the braking peak (p { 0.05), which may have been caused by gait instability after the heel strike. There were significant differences between intact and prosthetic limbs in total loading (force
