Conditions

Trans tibial amputee

Interventions

The prosthetist adjusts the socket alignment for the individual amputee&#39

s prosthetic limb. There shall be a total of eight conditions: socket adduction angle (+/-), flexion angle (+/-), internal/external position (+/-), and anteroposterior position (+/-). Experimental m

Eligibility

Sex/Gender

All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Lower leg amputees who can walk unassisted with a prosthesis in daily life.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Those with orthopedic disease in the lower limb on the healthy side, those with bilateral amputation, and those who have difficulty walking with a prosthetic limb.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Evaluate the pressure in the prosthetic socket. The timing of the evaluation should be before and after the prosthetist performs the alignment intervention.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Evaluate kinematic and kinematic parameters during gait. The timing of the evaluation should be before and after the prosthetist performs the alignment intervention.	—
