Summary

Research on cycling with limb amputation is limited but growing. This systematic review analyzed 20 articles from 2004-2014, finding a need for more studies on adaptive technology for amputee cyclists.

Area of Science:

Sports Science
Rehabilitation Medicine
Biomechanics

Background:

Paralympic cycling has evolved from recreation to elite competition.
Research on adaptive sports for amputees, particularly cycling, is often considered limited.

Purpose of the Study:

To systematically review the volume, type, and historical strategy of research on cycling with limb amputation.
To identify existing research themes and knowledge gaps in this field.

Main Methods:

A systematic literature review was conducted.
Four major online databases (SPORTDiscus, CINAHL, Scopus, MEDLINE) and Google Scholar were searched.
Inclusion criteria were applied, and 20 relevant peer-reviewed articles (2004-2014) were analyzed for content and themes.

Keywords:

Main Results:

Twenty peer-reviewed articles meeting the inclusion criteria were identified, published between 2004 and 2014.
A significant increase in publications was observed in the last five years of the study period.

Conclusions:

There is a notable paucity of research concerning cycling with limb amputation and the development of assistive technologies.
The findings establish a historical overview and identify key research themes, aiding future research direction in amputee cycling.
