¹Not significant. Note 1: The table is organized such that the predicted gait deviation index is a function of the independent variables listed. The coefficients of the independent variables have been suppressed until the utility of these equations have been proven for use with individual patients; Note 2: Participants reporting an absence of frustration (n = 4) in the four weeks prior to testing were not included in the regression analysis. No.: Number of independent variables; R²_adj: Adjusted R²; R²_pred: Predictive R²; nSL_int: Leg-length normalised intact limb step-length; t_stand: Time to stand; AM_C: Over the past four weeks, rate your ability to walk up stairs when using your prosthesis; 6MWD: Six-minute walk distance; Age: Chronological age; nSSWS: Leg-length normalised self-selected walking speed; UT_D: Over the past four weeks, rate your comfort while standing when using your prosthesis.
