A good treatment management within an interdisciplinary team is necessary to improve the quality of life after an amputation. Individual gait training is a requirement to improve the mobility and independence of the patient and supports the high quality of a prosthetic fitting.
This seminar has been designed for all therapists, prosthetists and medical experts who want to improve their knowledge regarding therapeutic interventions and gait training with different prosthetic knee joints.
- Get to know different kinds of mechanical knee joints & get a basic understanding of a mechatronic knee joint
- Optimize your gait training with regard to different knee joints
- Learn about clinical gait observation, typical gait disorders & therapeutic interventions
- Improve your biomechanical understanding & experience biomechanics as a key factor for successful therapy
Technical basics as well as hands-on training will be provided.
The practical training part is supported by demo users, and also includes a self-experience part.
Take the chance to share your experiences with international colleagues!
Become an expert for therapy with transfemoral amputees.
