Individual muscle contributions to propulsion in above-knee amputees with osseointegrated prosthesis during walking

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
Osseointegrated prostheses for individuals with lower limb amputation are an alternative to socket-based prostheses that mitigate the residual limb pain and discomfort at the socket stump interface during walking. In transfemoral amputees, propulsion is primarily generated by the prosthesis, with considerable contributions also by gluteus maximus and hamstrings.
