Spinal Motion during Walking in Persons with Transfemoral Amputation
with and without Low Back Pain
Azucena Rodriguez, PhD; Stefania Fatone, PhD, BPO (Hons)
Low back pain (LBP) is a prevalent condition among the general
population. Studies have reported that persons with transfemoral
amputation (TFA) are significantly more likely to suffer from LBP than
persons with transtibial amputation. The purpose of this study was to
investigate whether there are differences in spine kinematics during
walking in persons with unilateral TFA with and without LBP.
Dr. Stefania Fatone is a research associate professor in the Department
of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Northwestern University
Feinberg School of Medicine. Fatone is a prosthetist/orthotist and
conducts prosthetic and orthotic research at the Northwestern University
Prosthetics-Orthotics Center.
Dr. Azucena Rodriguez is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Northwestern University.
Rodriguez conducts research at the Northwestern Prosthetics-Orthotics
Center (NUPOC). Her current project investigates the spine kinematics in
persons with unilateral transfemoral amputation reporting low back pain.
*This webinar is available free of charge, but payment is required to
take the exam for MCE credits.
Member rate: $20/Nonmember rate: $40.
