I am soon to perform some gait analysis to assess prosthetic feet and am struggling to find much agreement in the literature about how to prepare subjects. The work will involve changing a couple of feet per session, per subject for practical reasons and therefore, it would be helpful if anyone can advise how long they feel an amputee (unilateral, trans-tibial) would need to familiarise themselves with a new foot.
