Amputee Running on Patterson Propulsion Socket PPS Prosthetic Leg

Desmond is the first amputee to run with a prosthetic knee and blade on the PPS system. This socket design, named for POA founder Stan Patterson, CP, features a two-piece flexible socket system with an attached carbon fiber strut. This innovative new design allows the patient to utilize their muscles in a way not possible when wearing a traditional prosthetic socket, resulting in a much more natural stride. The carbon fiber strut helps propel the prosthesis, and the patient is able to control it by firing their muscles, giving them a better awareness of the position and movement of their limb.
