Filter by:The comfort and fit of the residual limb within a prosthetic socket are of primary concern for many amputees. The residual limb is typically covered by nonbreathable and non-thermally conductive materials that can create a warm and ultimately moist environment. The investigators have developed a silicone liner approach to passively conduct heat from the skin using thermally conductive elastomers. A technology that can provide thermal control while retaining adequate suspension, weight, and other prosthetic characteristics would benefit many prosthesis wearers.
In the international literature there are only few publication about the normal biomechanical parameters of the lower limb examined prospectively in healthy population. The goal of our study to determine 15 anatomical and biomechanical parameters of the lower limb using 3D reconstruction based on upright, stereo radiographs in young, healthy volunteers.
