Abstract
The results of the current study demonstrate that major features of knee joint loading do not change over the first 6 months of independently walking with a prosthesis. The magnitude of these loads are similar to loads observed in individuals with lower limb loss further from injury/initial ambulation, but the present results do not imply that no changes occur after 6 months.
