How long has Keith had his prosthetic for? How long has he been practicing using stairs?

[@HungTran-dv5me]

To my knowledge Keith has been using the Microprocessor it's a Genium for at least 2yrs. But I don't know wat mechanical knee Keith was using b4 he transition to the Genium which is a top of the range ottobock brand. I think all up Keith has been using prosthetics for more than 5yrs.i hope that bit of info will help u.

[@mariannethompson6955]

Can you show this with a double above knee?

[@MissionGait]

Thanks for the suggestion. We don't currently have a video showing a bilateral above knee amputee, but this is definitely on our list to create.

[@sirwhite2697]

How can i get these , i live in Nigeria

[@maribelgaynor8959]

Sorry how to do this as bbk amputee?

[@MissionGait]

Please skip ahead to 6:36 to watch our instructions for a bilateral below-the-knee amputee!

[@AmanNarang-dd4rr]

How possible without stick to walk?

[@MissionGait]

Hi, friend! While we aren't sure about the details of your condition, this series is intended to help prosthetic patients learn how to walk on their own without using a walking aid. We recommend consulting with your physician to figure out the best type of physical therapy practices for you.

[@MinHsienLee-AKAmputee]

Sorry about that. Can you show me some videos of teaching how to use the Otto Bock 3R80 Knee? Because I wear the Otto Bock 3R80 Knee. Thanks so much.

[@MissionGait]

In this video series David mentions tips for individuals with any type of prosthesis. However, we are looking to increase our representation of various prosthetic componentry in our upcoming videos. So thank you for the suggestion!

[@MinHsienLee-AKAmputee]

@@MissionGait I am waiting for you.

[@MissionGait]

We do not have any current amputee models using the 3R80 knee, but we are aware that this is something that a lot of our viewers would like to see. It is difficult to say when we may be able to have an individual with this prosthetic knee that will be available for filming. However, I can provide a few extra notes for you. The approach to the technique is very similar for ascending the stairs and ramps. The greatest difference is with descending: As mentioned in the video a knee such as the 3R80 must remain locked out while going down a ramp or stairs. So the prosthetic side will be the first leg down a step, and ramps are often best performed going sideways with the prosthetic side on the downhill side. Most importantly do not step down with the non-prosthetic side as the prosthetic knee will most likely buckle and you will fall. For more specific details, check out the video again. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

[@MinHsienLee-AKAmputee]

@@MissionGait But when I go down slope,I go down slope at the first step by my good knee for the first step. That's also okay for me to walk to down slope by this function.

[@faheemkhan9512]

[@magednegmel-din9733]

[@MissionGait]

[@824mankaransingh8]

Price of joint and in which country you are??

[@MissionGait]

We do not sell, fit, or provide prosthetic limbs or components. Therefore we do not have a price to list. We are located within the USA.

How is he walking without a walker

[@MissionGait]

Hi there, it takes a lot of practice to walk without any assistive devices! It requires good balance and strength. Talking to a local physical therapist may provide more insight as to how you can walk without a walker.

[@tadvivishal6874]

Hii

[@alstegmeyer2824]

I would NOT trust the C-Leg prosthetics I have had with this process ...especially going down straight skipping a step. Crash and burn! Sideways down on a slope.

[@jackcone4520]
