Toward personalizing prosthesis prescription: A take‐home study of three microprocessor‐controlled prosthetic knees: A randomized crossover study

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Previous studies on microprocessor‐controlled prosthetic knees (MPKs) often investigate benefits of MPKs as a class of knees rather than clinically relevant differences between specific knees, despite their distinct features. Objectives To systematically evaluate and report outcomes associated with three commercially available MPKs ...
