Effects of powered versus passive-elastic ankle foot prostheses on leg muscle activity during level, uphill and downhill walking
People with transtibial amputation (TTA) using passive-elastic prostheses have greater leg muscle activity and metabolic cost during level-ground and sloped walking than non-amputees. Use of a stance-phase powered (BiOM) versus passive-elastic prosthesis reduces metabolic cost for people with TTA du...
