Dynamic balancing responses in unilateral transtibial amputees following outward-directed perturbations during slow treadmill walking differ considerably for amputated and non-amputated side

BACKGROUND: Due to disrupted motor and proprioceptive function, lower limb amputation imposes considerable challenges associated with balance and greatly increases risk of falling in presence of perturbations during walking. The aim of this study was to investigate dynamic balancing responses in uni...
