Abstract:Introduction: Gait is the motor task most impacted by amputation, requiring several physical and cognitive adaptations. The interaction between cognition and movement can be validly assessed through dual-tasks analysis. Objective: To analyze the kinematics of single and dual-motor tasks of participants with transfemoral amputation and compare it with healthy participants. Methods: This is a comparative cross-sectional study in which 14 participants in the transfemoral amputee group and 14 non-amputee partici… Show more
