Margin of Stability of Individuals Fitted with Transfemoral Bone-Anchored Prosthesis using Osseointegrated Fixation
Résumé
The concept of margin of stability in the medial-lateral direction introduced by Hof et al can characterize gait stability. Indeed, this margin has been presented for individuals with transtibial and transfemoral amputation fitted with socket-suspended prostheses. Furthermore, margin of stability will be particularly relevant to further establish if direct skeletal attachment enabling osseoperception and overall better control on the prosthesis can improve balance during gait. However, this study is yet to be conducted
