Summary

The Ossur Prosthetic Power Knee claims to assist in helping people with transfemoral amputation to walk up stairs and stand up from sitting. We expect to find that this product has the ability to help unload the sound knee during these tasks. We plan to collect force and motion data while people stand up from a chair. We will compare the data from people using several types of prosthetic knees, including the power knee as well as from people who are not amputees to see what the force and motion contributions are from the different knees evaluated.
