Gait asymmetry in lower-limb amputees can lead to several secondary conditions that can
decrease general health and quality of life. Including augmented sensory feedback in …

Background Reduced sensory feedback from lower leg prostheses results in harmful gait
patterns and entails a significant cognitive burden because users have to visually monitor …

The loss of somatosensory feedback after transfemoral amputation imposes a serious
challenge in achieving postural stability. In the recent past, weight shifting exercises with …

Due to the neural coupling between upper and lower limbs and the importance of interlimb
coordination in human gait, focusing on appropriate arm swing should be a part of gait …

Persons with amputations lack important senses from the amputated limb. With the absence
of proprioception in the amputated leg, amputees have far more difficulty maintaining a …

Subjects with unilateral vestibular loss exhibit motor control impairments as shown by body
and limb deviation during gait. Biofeedback devices have been shown to improve stance …

This paper evaluates the prospects of using a novel Integrated Haptic Feedback (IHF)
system. IHF can provide over-ground gait training regimens for post-stroke ambulatory …

Improving postural stability of lower limb amputees by integrating vibrotactile sensory
feedback (VF) with balancing exercises has been proved advantageous. However, the …

Patients with a lower limb amputation rely more on visual feedback to maintain balance than
able-bodied individuals. Altering this sensory modality in amputees thus results in a …

Recent studies have shown that haptic feedback on the body, either at or away from the
desired gait parameter to be changed, can improve gait performance. Here we introduced a …
