WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM A PROSTHETIC KNEE SYSTEM

Prosthetic knee systems are typically used for individuals with:

  • Above-knee (transfemoral) amputations
  • Knee disarticulation amputations
  • Limb loss due to trauma, vascular conditions, infection, or cancer

Each patient is evaluated individually to determine the most appropriate prosthetic design and expected functional outcomes.

BENEFITS OF A PROPERLY FITTED PROTHETIC KNEE

  • Improved walking stability
  • Better balance and weight distribution
  • Increased safety during movement
  • More natural gait patterns
  • Ability to navigate different terrains (depending on system)
  • Enhanced independence in daily activities

HOW PROSTHETIC KNEES WORK

Prosthetic knees are designed to replicate the function of the natural knee by providing controlled flexion and extension during walking. Depending on the type of system, they may use mechanical joints, fluid resistance, or computerized sensors to manage movement.

Proper alignment and integration with the socket and foot components are essential to ensure stability, reduce energy expenditure, and promote efficient gait patterns.
