The effect of weight-bearing training with visual feedback on balance and prosthetic loading in trans-tibial amputees following vascular disease
Purpose: Asymmetrical weight-bearing on trans-tibial prosthesis at the initial prosthetic fitting results in a modified gait and secondary disorders. The pilot study will examine the feasibility of the weight-bearing training with visual feedback in trans-tibial prosthesis loading and its potential effectiveness. Methods: Weight-bearing of the prosthesis was evaluated by centre of pressure (COP). Twenty participants with unilateral initial trans-tibial prosthesis were randomized into test and control group
