Minimum toe clearance and tripping probability in people with unilateral transtibial amputation walking on ramps with different prosthetic designs

/

Mauricio Riveras; Emiliano Ravera; David Ewins; Aliah F. Shaheen; Paola Catalfamo Formento Gait and Posture Abstract Background: Minimum Toe Clearance (MTC) is defined as the minimum vertical distance between the lowestpoint under the front part of the foot and the ground, during mid-swing. Low values of MTC and walking oninclines are both related to higher […]
