Evaluation of the 3C100 C-leg Prosthetic Knee Joint

(Inv: Seymour, Ordway) The 3C100 C-leg (computerized leg) is one of the newest prosthetic innovations on the market for individuals with an above knee amputation. However, there has been limited research regarding the clinical effectiveness of this device. We are quantitatively studying the functional differences of individuals with the C-leg in comparison to their hydraulic prosthesis. (Otto Bock Health Care)
