|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
surfaces? - ✔✔K1 || ||
Which K level describes the ability or potential to traverse low level
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
environment, but a limited community ambulator? - ✔✔K2 || || || || || || ||
Which K level describes the ability to ambulate with variable cadence,
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
independent household and community ambulator? - ✔✔K3 || || || || || ||
Which K level describes the ability to exceed basic ambulation skills? High
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||

what is an endoskeletal prosthesis? - ✔✔Modular, meaning the ankle or leg
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
part can be changed and adjusted
|| || || || ||
what is an exoskeletal prosthesis? - ✔✔Structural strength from outer
|| || || || || || || || || ||
laminated shell. Very durable, but cannot be adjusted once completed due to no
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
interchangeable components. ||
,2
Which prosthetic foot is designed to absorb shock and allow movement of the
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
ankle cushion heel foot. It has no ankle mechanism.
|| || || || || || || ||
What is a single axis foot prosthesis? - ✔✔A prosthesis that has an ankle joint
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
that enables the foot to tilt up and down. Can be heavier.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
What is a multiaxial foot prosthesis? - ✔✔Features articulating joints which
|| || || || || || || || || || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
May experience twisting or rotating around the longitudinal axis.
|| || || || || || || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
continuously monitor the user's movement and adjust both the ankle and || || || || || || || || || || ||
stiffness of the ankle? - ✔✔Microprocessor ankle Prosthesis
|| || || || || || ||

|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
loading? - ✔✔Powered ankle || || ||
What is the directional alignment of the transtibial prosthesis during static
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
standing balance? - ✔✔It's the line dropped from the greater trochanter,
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
through the knee to the ankle. Bisects the knee slightly anterior to the ankle.
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
foot in 5-7 degrees of ER and socket in 5-8 of flexion.
|| || || || || || || || || || ||
what are the causes of excessive knee extension at initial contact with a
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
transtibial prosthesis? - ✔✔-Too long of a toe lever arm and see posterior
|| || || || || || || || || || || || ||
placement of socket over the foot. || || || || || ||
-Heel too soft || ||
, 2
-not enough socket flexion
|| || ||
What are the causes of excessive knee flexion at initial contact with a transtibial
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
prosthesis? - ✔✔-Too hard of a heel || || || || || ||

prosthesis? - ✔✔Prosthesis is too long || || || || ||
What is causing a patient to walk with a wide base of support with a transtibial
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
prosthesis? - ✔✔- Outset of the foot causing the flat foot
|| || || || || || || || || ||
-medial leaning pylon caused by the socket being too adducted.
|| || || || || || || || ||
What is causing a patient to walk with a narrow BOS with a transtibial
|| || || || || || || || || || || || || ||
prosthesis? - ✔✔- inset of the foot || || || || || ||
-lateral leaning pylong caused by the socket being too abducted
|| || || || || || || || ||
What is causing knee instability/drop off at terminal stance with a transtibial
|| || || || || || || || || || || ||
prosthesis? - ✔✔- Foot is too soft and short foot || || || || || || || || || ||
- too much socket flexion d/t heel height
