- W4366991770 abstract "Abstract Background Hip muscles play a prominent role in compensating for the loss of ankle and/or knee muscle function after lower limb amputation. Despite contributions to walking and balance, there is no consensus regarding hip strength deficits in lower limb prosthesis (LLP) users. Identifying patterns of hip muscle weakness in LLP users may increase the specificity of physical therapy interventions (i.e., which muscle group(s) to target), and expedite the search for modifiable factors associated with deficits in hip muscle function among LLP users. The purpose of this study was to test whether hip strength, estimated by maximum voluntary isometric peak torque, differed between the residual and intact limbs of LLP users, and age- and gender-matched controls. Methods Twenty-eight LLP users (14 transtibial, 14 transfemoral, 7 dysvascular, 13.5 years since amputation), and 28 age- and gender-matched controls participated in a cross-sectional study. Maximum voluntary isometric hip extension, flexion, abduction, and adduction torque were measured with a motorized dynamometer. Participants completed 15 five-second trials with 10-s rest between trials. Peak isometric hip torque was normalized to body mass × thigh length. A 2-way mixed-ANOVA with a between-subject factor of leg (intact, residual, control) and a within-subject factor of muscle group (extensors, flexors, abductors, adductors) tested for differences in strength among combinations of leg and muscle group (α = 0.05). Multiple comparisons were adjusted using Tukey’s Honest-Difference. Results A significant 2-way interaction between leg and muscle group indicated normalized peak torque differed among combinations of muscle group and leg (p < 0.001). A significant simple main effect of leg (p = 0.001) indicated peak torque differed between two or more legs per muscle group. Post-hoc comparisons revealed hip extensor, flexor, and abductor peak torque was not significantly different between the residual and control legs (p ≥ 0.067) but torques in both legs were significantly greater than in the intact leg (p < 0.001). Peak hip abductor torque was significantly greater in the control and residual legs than the intact leg (p < 0.001), and significantly greater in the residual than control leg (p < 0.001). Conclusions Our results suggest that it is the intact, rather than the residual limb, that is weaker. These findings may be due to methodological choices (e.g., normalization), or biomechanical demands placed on residual limb hip muscles. Further research is warranted to both confirm, expand upon, and elucidate possible mechanisms for the present findings; and clarify contributions of intact and residual limb hip muscles to walking and balance in LLP users.
