Evaluation of activity and function before and immediately after the provision of a microprocessor knee in individuals with transfemoral amputation
Perceived and in-clinic outcome measures improved after short-term provision of an MPK for transfemoral amputees. However, PA did not change in this cohort of patients over the study period. More longitudinal studies are needed to characterize the impact of MPK provision on PA and societal participation.
