No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To assess the carryover effect of an innovative new gait training program on physiological and functional gait performance in persons with a traumatic lower extremity amputation. A second objective is to clarify the relationship between gait biomechanics (joint and sgment kinematics and energy cost.

Conditions

  • Elevated Metabolic Cost

Interventions

OTHER

Gait Training

12 sessions, 30 minutes of walking on a treadmill with real time therapist directed feedback on gait kinematics.
