Can real-time visual feedback during gait retraining reduce metabolic demand for individuals with transtibial amputation?

The metabolic demand of walking generally increases following lower extremity amputation. This study used real-time visual feedback to modify biomechanical factors linked to an elevated metabolic demand of walking in individuals with transtibial amputation. Eight persons with unilateral, traumatic t...
