Summary
This study looked at 130 adults with leg amputations (below or above the knee) to measure how their walking balance differs between their sound and prosthetic limbs. Researchers used special pressure-sensing platforms to track foot placement and stability during a short walk. The goal was to better understand walking patterns after amputation, which could help improve rehabilitation programs.
