The effects of a controlled energy storage and return prototype prosthetic foot on transtibial amputee ambulation

The lack of functional ankle musculature in lower limb amputees contributes to the reduced prosthetic ankle push-off, compensations at other joints and more energetically costly gait commonly observed in comparison to non-amputees. A variety of energy storing and return prosthetic feet have been dev...
