| الوصف: | BACKGROUND Adults with lower-limb amputation walk with an asymmetrical gait and exhibit poor functional outcomes, which may negatively impact quality-of-life. OBJECTIVE To evaluate associations between gait asymmetry and performance-based physical function among adults with lower-limb amputation. METHODS A cross-sectional study involving 38 adults with a unilateral transtibial (N = 24; 62.5 ± 10.5 years) or transfemoral amputation (N = 14; 59.9 ± 9.5 years) was conducted. Following gait analysis (capturing step length and stance time asymmetry at self-selected (SSWS) and fast walking speeds (FWS)), participants completed performance-based measures (i.e. Timed Up and Go (TUG), the 10-Meter Walk Test (10mwt), and the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT)). RESULTS Step length and stance time asymmetry (at SSWS and FWS) were significantly correlated with each performance-based measure (p |
