Evaluation of the Efficiency of the Echelon Foot in Traumatic Trans Tibial Amputees
Evaluation of the Efficiency of the Echelon Foot in Traumatic Trans Tibial
The aim of this work was to test the Echelon foot efficiency to offer enhanced safety, comfort and function over a wide range of walking surfaces, inclines and stairs, thereby improving the quality of life for amputees.
Ten individuals with a unilateral trans- tibial amputation will participate in two test sessions- one while using their own prosthetic foot, the other while using the Echelon foot.
