Set Up length
With flexion, aduction and abduction properly
accommodated, set the limb length 5mm
longer than the sound side to allow for
compression and deflection of the foot springs
during gait. This should be re-assessed once
the dynamic trial commences and the length
adjusted accordingly.
Build Line
This should fall 10mm anterior to the centre
of the pyramid (with heel height properly
accommodated). The socket should be
positioned accordingly.
Dynamic alignment
Coronal Plane
Ensure that M-L thrust is minimal by adjusting
relative positions of socket and foot.
Sagital Plane
Check for smooth transition from heel strike
to toe off. Ensure also that when standing the
heel and toe are evenly loaded and that both
are touching the floor.
Trans-femoral Alignment
Align trans-femoral devices according to fitting
instructions supplied with the knee, keeping
the build line relative to the foot as shown.
