Differences in Hip Muscle Strength and Static Balance in Patients with Transfemoral Amputations Classified at Different K-Levels: A Preliminary Cross-Sectional Study.

Although not statistically significant, the magnitude of the differences indicates a distinction between K-level groups. These results suggest that residual limb strength and balance parameters may have the potential to be used as objective measures to assist K-level assignment for patients with TFA. This potential needs to be confirmed in future studies with a larger number of participants.
