BackgroundThe prosthetic socket is a key component that influences prosthesis satisfaction, with a poorly fitting prosthetic socket linked to prosthesis abandonment and reduced community participation. This paper reviews adjustable socket designs, as... Read More about Adjustable prosthetic sockets: a systematic review of industrial and research design characteristics and their justifications..

Measuring transtibial prosthetic socket-to-residuum interface coupling in gait using 3D motion capture (2023)
Journal Article

Fit and function of a prosthetic socket are often reported as the main reason for dissatisfaction within lower-limb amputees [1,2], leading to further reductions in mobility. One way of measuring the performance of a prosthetic socket is through anal... Read More about Measuring transtibial prosthetic socket-to-residuum interface coupling in gait using 3D motion capture.
