Gait training using error-augmentation on a split-belt treadmill may modify step length and stance time asymmetry for patients with non-traumatic transtibial amputation, but additional research is needed regarding short- and long-term efficacy. Additional training sessions may be needed to sustain initial changes achieved from a single session.
