Kinematic and kinetic analysis of transfemoral prosthesis
Journal Title: Wearable Technology - Year 2022, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The feasibility of using transfemoral prosthesis Otto bock with 3R80 knee and articulated ankle1C30 “Trias” was analyzed from the perspective of dynamics and clinic. The kinematic and kinetic study of gait were performed on 5 amputated volunteers and 5 controls using videography techniques and force platform. Kinetic asymmetry gait is one of the main causes of hip joint degeneration. Combining kinematic and kinetic variables, we can draw important conclusions related to the dynamic imbalance of the main causes of hip degenerative diseases through the clinical trials of radiography film and density measurement, which has become an important tool to evaluate the feasibility of prosthetic design.
