Question 49
Question
Which Hip Joint Mechanism is described below?
At toe off, knee flexion pulls the hip joint against the posterior extension stop. As the knee rotates forward the weight and slight pelvic posterior rotation flexes the hip. Because the prosthesis is at full length during mid swing the prosthesis must be significantly shortened to permit toe clearance, however, most amputees tend to vault with the contralateral leg.
Answer
-
Canadian Hip
-
Hip Flexion Bias System
-
Littig Hip Strut

Question 51
Question
Which Hip Joint Mechanism is described below?
