Join Dr. Steve Gard, editor-in-chief of the Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, as he chats with Murray Maitland, PT, PhD, about his research on improving prosthetic foot design to enhance frontal plane motion. His study examined 21 individuals with unilateral below-knee amputations, comparing a new prosthetic foot design with a locked and traditional foot. Featuring an innovative sliding mechanism, the new design significantly improved frontal plane motion, particularly for activities like sideways walking and navigating uneven terrain. Beyond the study’s findings, Dr. Maitland highlights the importance of developing more diverse prosthetic designs and integrating advanced technologies to better serve the unique needs and lifestyles of people with limb loss.
