Impact on gait biomechanics of using an active variable impedance prosthetic knee

BACKGROUND: An above knee amputation can have a significant impact on gait, with substantial deviations in inter-leg symmetry, step length, hip exertion and upper body involvement even when using a current clinical standard of care prosthesis. These differences can produce gait that is less efficien...
