Influence of the body mass change on the prosthesis life.
| | Current body mass (kg) | 50 | 60 | 70 | 80 | 90 | 100 |
| | Expected increase in prosthesis life duration after a weight loss of 10 kg | 10.7% | 8.7% | 7.3% | 6.3% | 5.5% | 4.9% | | Expected decrease in prosthesis life duration after a weight gain of 10 kg | 8% | 6.8% | 5.9% | 5.2% | 4.7% | 4.2% |
