Zusammenfassung: A three-event ankle model of the rockers in gait is inadequate. A four-event segment and joint model is preferable.

Zusammenfassung: The knowledge of reference values is useful for the interpretation of gait analysis results. We present a method to receive reference values from measurements with healthy subjects. These standard values are determined depending on age, body height and gait velocity, based on a linear model.

Zusammenfassung: A six degree mobile measuring system was developed to investigate the mobility and activity of above-knee amputees with focus on the loads applied to the structure. The results of a one year study with 15 subjects will give insights into daily activities and loads for future standard testing.

Zusammenfassung: Inter-rater and test-retest reliability was determined for five measures of balance, coordination, power, speed, and agility on 83 Military Service members with war-related traumatic amputation. The results demonstrated excellent inter-rater and test-retest reliability for the five tests.

Zusammenfassung: Sixty-two Military Service members with lower limb loss performed 3 speed and agility tests: modified Edgren Side Step Test (mEST), T-Test (TT), and Illinois Agility Test (IAT). Significant differences were found between service members with and without limb loss and between levels of amputation

Zusammenfassung: A pilot study was conducted to examine the feasibility and potential benefit of Wii Fit games in promoting symmetrical shifting of weight between the sound and prosthetic leg in children with leg amputation. Compliance was high and small immediate improvement in mobility and balance was observed.
