Design and Fabrication of a New Expandable Transtibial Liner with Manual Volume Control: A Prototype [PDF]

Journal of Biomedical Physics and Engineering, 2020
Diurnal volume changes is one of the main factors influencing socket fit in transtibial prosthesis and causing pressure problem issues. Embedded bladder liners have been recently a potential approach to deal with this problem.

Alterations in Spatiotemporal Parameters in Patients With Lower-Limb Amputation: A Systematic Review With Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

Physiother Res Int
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate differences in spatiotemporal gait parameters in individuals with transfemoral (TFA) and transtibial amputation (TTA) compared with physically able individuals. Methods This systematic review with meta‐analysis was conducted according to the MOOSE guidelines.

Effects of powered versus passive-elastic ankle foot prostheses on leg muscle activity during level, uphill and downhill walking

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
People with transtibial amputation (TTA) using passive-elastic prostheses have greater leg muscle activity and metabolic cost during level-ground and sloped walking than non-amputees. Use of a stance-phase powered (BiOM) versus passive-elastic prosthesis

Running-specific prosthesis model, stiffness and height affect biomechanics and asymmetry of athletes with unilateral leg amputations across speeds

Royal Society Open Science, 2022
Athletes with transtibial amputation (TTA) use running-specific prostheses (RSPs) to run. RSP configuration likely affects the biomechanics of such athletes across speeds.

Five-year outcomes of major lower extremity amputation and two-staged admission pathway for new transtibial amputees in a local hospital

Journal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2022
Background: Transtibial amputation and subsequent prosthetic fitting can cause prolonged hospital length of stay (LOS). Recently, a two-staged admission pathway for new transtibial amputees was introduced in a local hospital to shorten hospital LOS ...

An artificial gastrocnemius for a transtibial prosthesis [PDF]

2009 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2009
A transtibial amputee does not have a functional gastrocnemius muscle, which affects the knee as well as the ankle joint. In this investigation, we developed a transtibial prosthesis comprising an artificial gastrocnemius mechanism as well as a powered ankle-foot device. A pilot study was conducted with a bilateral transtibial amputee walking at a self-

Clinical Outcome of Medial Meniscal Posterior Root Tear Repaired by Arthroscopic Transtibial Pull-through Technique in a Middle-aged Population – A Case Series

Journal of Orthopedics, Traumatology and Rehabilitation, 2023
Introduction: Patients with partial meniscectomy for MMPRTs still develop early osteoarthritis, have poor clinical outcomes, and have a high arthroplasty rate at a follow-up of 8 more than 5 years.

Acute rather than insidious symptom onset is associated with better postoperative outcomes after transtibial pull‐out repair for medial meniscus posterior root tears [PDF]

J Exp Orthop
Abstract Purpose To compare clinical and radiologic outcomes after transtibial pull‐out repair for medial meniscus posterior root tears (MMPRTs) between patients with acute and insidious symptom onset. Methods Patients who underwent transtibial pull‐out repair for MMPRTs between March 2022 and December 2023 and had a minimum 2‐year follow‐up were ...
