alternierendes Gehen


Explanation:
alternierendes Gehen, wie z.B. beim Treppensteigen

The SAM showed a tendency to undercount when the subjects were climbing stairs (mean percent error = -4.67 percent). Undercounting increased slightly (-5.70 percent) with the application of a TCC. During data collection, we observed that two of the subjects in the TCC used a "step-to-gait" pattern versus the more conventional "step-through" pattern to climb stairs. They did this to promote stability. Although this altered gait pattern increased the percent error for the SAM, the increment in error is not considered clinically important because patients who wear lower-limb casts typically avoid stair climbing generally.

Es ist wichtig, dass der Prothesenfuß bei jedem Schritt vollständig auf der Stufe aufkommen kann. Hierzu sollte die Ferse so weit wie möglich auf dem hinteren Teil der Stufe zum Stehen kommen. Wenn der Anwender dann sein Gewicht auf den Vorfuß verlagert, löst sich das Gelenk in einer natürlichen Bewegung und ermöglicht so einen flüssigen Bewegungsablauf. Dies erfordert für den Anwender allerdings viel Mut und Übung. Fangen Sie also langsam an. Mit zunehmender Erfahrung und Übung ist der Prothesenträger dann aber immer besser in der Lage alternierend Treppen zu steigen.

How do we instruct the amputee to go down stairs?
A. We highly recommend that you work with your amputee on descending stairs at your facility. Proper gait training is essential. The heel should be back on the step and the amputee will have to transfer their weight onto the ball of the prosthetic foot, causing the knee to release in a natural motion. With experience and practice, the amputee may be able to walk step-over-step when descending stairs
