Longitudinal kinematic and kinetic adaptations to obstacle crossing in recent lower limb amputees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Obstacle crossing is an important activity of daily living, necessary to avoid tripping or falling, although it is not fully understood how transtibial amputees adapt to performing this activity of daily living following discharge from ...

Numerical Measurement of a Virtual Model for the Knee Prosthesis Geometry

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
The human knee joint usually suffers progressive deterioration with time. The conventional cure of this issue is to replace it with an alternate knee by applying the prosthesis implant.

Computer assisted knee replacement surgery : is the movement mainstream? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The first computer-assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) was performed in 1997. The FDA approved computer assisted knee arthroplasty systems used in the early 2000s.

GUEPAR hinge knee prosthesis

open access: yesOrthopaedics & Traumatology: Surgery & Research, 2014
Early and late results of the GUEPAR hinge knee prosthesis were evaluated on a series of 184 operations performed before January 1st, 1974. There were 3 immediate deaths and 26 before 5 years. Nineteen prostheses were removed. One hundred and twenty-six knees had degenerative osteoarthritis, 52 rheumatoid arthritis.

A randomised RSA study of Peri-Apatitetrade mark HA coating of a total knee prosthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: In total knee replacement, sound early fixation of the prosthesis is crucial for achieving a good long-term result and for minimising the risk of loosening.

Is standard total knee arthroplasty with lateral femoral overhanging a cause of anterior knee pain? A randomized controlled trial

open access: yesSICOT-J, 2022
Introduction: Anterior knee pain (AKP) may persist after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), even if well aligned and stable, and is reported in up to 30% of patients, leading to patient dissatisfaction.

Temporal adaptations in generic and population-specific quality of life and falls efficacy in men with recent lower-limb amputations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This study examined the longitudinal changes in generic health-related quality of life (QOL), prosthesis-related QOL, falls efficacy, and walking speed in men with lower-limb amputations up to 6 months following discharge from rehabilitation.

A new passive transfemoral prosthesis mechanism based on 3R36 knee and ESAR foot providing walking and squatting

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2023
Researchers have proposed various linkage mechanisms to connect knee and ankle joints for above-knee prostheses, but most of them only offer natural walking. However, studies have shown that people assume a squatting posture during daily activities. This
