The influence of a user-adaptive prosthetic knee across varying walking speeds: a randomized cross-over trial

The influence of a user-adaptive prosthetic knee across varying walking speeds: a randomized cross-over trial

Highlights • Few authors investigated the added value of a MPK across varying walking speeds. • We compared the Rheo Knee II to the use of a NMPK at three walking speeds. • During slow walking the Rheo Knee II led to decreased intact ankle vaulting. • On other outcome parameters no differences were...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Few authors investigated the added value of a MPK across varying walking speeds. • We compared the Rheo Knee II to the use of a NMPK at three walking speeds. • During slow walking the Rheo Knee II led to decreased intact ankle vaulting. • On other outcome parameters no differences were found. • The effect of the Rheo Knee II on the studied outcome parameters is limited.
