Prosthetic alignment

Hierarchically Controlled Prosthetic Hand Self-Aligning Orthotic Knee Joint... [Pg.683]

Fitting also includes assessment of prosthetic suspension, the adequacy of the proximal trim lines in terms of comfort and the associated mobility of the proximal joint, and the alignment of the prosthesis itself (see Sec. 33.5.4). [Pg.904]

The residual limb-prosthetic socket stresses are influenced by the fit of the socket and the alignment of the prosthesis. For transdbial amputees, medial-lateral stability is influenced by foot placement. Foot inset (or outset) may result in varas (or valgus) moments applied to the limb. Similarly, anterior-posterior stability is influenced by the fore-aft position (extension-flexion moment) of the foot, foot plantarflexion/dorsiflexion (extension-flexion moment), and heel durometer (soft heel increases foot plantarflexion). For transtibial amputees with normal knee extensors, knee flexion moments on heel strike are desired, as for individuals without amputation. [Pg.906]
