With the technologic advances in medicine and an emphasis on maintaining physical fitness, the population of athletes with impairments is growing. It is incumbent upon health care practitioners to make every effort to inform these individuals of growing and diverse opportunities and to encourage safe exercise and athletic participation through counseling and education. Given the opportunities for participation in sports for persons with a limb deficiency, the demand for new, innovative prosthetic designs is challenging the clinical and technical expertise of the physician and prosthetist. When generating a prosthetic prescription, physicians and prosthetists should consider the needs and preferences of the athlete with limb deficiency, as well as the functional demands of the chosen sporting activity. The intent of this article is to provide information regarding the current advancements in the adaptive sports technology and biomechanics in the field of prosthetics, and to assist clinicians and their patients in facilitating participation in sporting activities.
随着医学技术的进步以及对保持身体健康的重视，残疾运动员的数量正在增加。医疗从业者有责任尽一切努力告知这些人越来越多且多样的机会，并通过咨询和教育鼓励他们进行安全的锻炼和参与体育运动。鉴于肢体残疾者参与体育活动的机会，对新型创新假肢设计的需求正在挑战医生和假肢师的临床和技术专业知识。在开具假肢处方时，医生和假肢师应考虑肢体残疾运动员的需求和偏好，以及所选体育活动的功能需求。本文旨在提供有关假肢领域适应性运动技术和生物力学的当前进展的信息，并协助临床医生及其患者参与体育活动。
