Activities of Daily Living in Lower Limb Amputees With a Bone-Anchored Prosthesis: A Retrospective Case Series With 24 Months’ Follow-Up [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2023 Background and purpose: Little is known about the activities of daily living (ADL) of patients with a bone-anchored prosthesis (BAP). We aimed to objectively measure ADL without and with BAP during standard care of follow-up.

Kinetics of Individual Limbs During Level and Slope Walking With a Unilateral Transtibial Bone-Anchored Prosthesis in the Cat [PDF]
Journal of Biomechanics, 2018 Ongoing animal preclinical studies on transcutaneous bone-anchored prostheses have aimed to improve biomechanics of prosthetic locomotion in people with limb loss. It is much less common to translate successful developments in human biomechanics and prosthetic research to veterinary medicine to treat animals with limb loss.

How to Improve Patient Selection in Individuals With Lower Extremity Amputation Using a Bone-Anchored Prosthesis [PDF]
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related ResearchBackground Many patients with a lower limb socket-suspended prothesis experience socket-related problems, such as pain, chronic skin conditions, and mechanical problems, and as a result, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) is often negatively affected. A bone-anchored prosthesis can overcome these problems and improve HRQoL,
