A biomechanical analysis of running for trans-femoral amputees [PDF]
, 1998 Lower limb amputation results in changes to the usual pattern of human locomotion. Previous research has shown that amputees walk more slowly due to asymmetries In their movement patterns and that trans-femoral amputee gait was also found to be sensitive
