Understanding How Powered Componentry Impacts K2-Level Transfemoral Amputee Gait

The goal of this study is to understand how providing power at the knee or ankle individually, or providing power at both the knee and ankle, impacts ambulation for K2 level transfemoral amputees. Aim 1: measure functional performance of K2 level ambulators when using a commercially available passive microprocessor knee prosthesis (Ottobock Cleg/Ottobock foot) or a powered knee and ankle prosthesis (SRALab Hybrid Knee and SRAlab Polycentric Powered Ankle. Aim 2: Participants will be evaluated on the contribution of adding power at the knee only or the ankle only. Aim 3: The investigators will evaluate the functional performance after intensive clinical gait training on the powered knee and ankle prosthesis (SRALab Hybrid Knee and SRALab Polycentric Powered Ankle). Our hypothesis is that providing powered componentry will improve function and that intensive training will magnify those improvements.
