Table 1.

Participant data. For the activity metric calculations, each participant's durations for a mode were calculated. The duration for a mode was defined as the participant's mean duration of the activity across all days in the mode.

Demographic characteristic Median Range
Age (y) 58 35–78
Time since amputation (y) 17 4–47
Body mass index (BMI*) (kg/m2) 26.7 21.2–39.2
Socket volume—mid-patellar-tendon to distal end (mL) 1332 805–1728
Residual limb length (cm) 15.9 9.0–19.0
Residual limb circumference (cm) 29.8 22.2–35.1
Activity metric Low  High
Prosthesis day duration (h/day) 2.1  17.5
Time conducting walking bouts of 5 or more steps (h/day) 0.1  1.5
Doff time (h/day) 0.0  7.3
Step count (steps/day) 107  3360
Time wearing the prosthesis but not conducting walking bouts of > 5 steps (% of prosthesis day) 34.8  98.8
