Peak knee adduction moment during gait in anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed females.
BACKGROUND Recent work has shown that anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed patients exhibit an increased peak knee adduction moment during walking gait compared to healthy controls. An increased peak knee adduction moment has been suggested to be a potential mechanism of degeneration for knee osteoarthritis. The few studies in this area have not considered an exclusively female anterior cru...
متن کاملAn Ambulatory Method of Identifying Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructed Gait Patterns
The use of inertial sensors to characterize pathological gait has traditionally been based on the calculation of temporal and spatial gait variables from inertial sensor data. This approach has proved successful in the identification of gait deviations in populations where substantial differences from normal gait patterns exist; such as in Parkinsonian gait. However, it is not currently clear i...
متن کاملGait retraining to reduce the knee adduction moment through real-time visual feedback of dynamic knee alignment.
Varus knee alignment is a risk factor for medial knee osteoarthritis and is associated with high knee adduction moments. Therefore, reducing the knee adduction moment in varus-aligned individuals with otherwise healthy knees may reduce their risk for developing osteoarthritis. A gait modification that improves dynamic knee alignment may reduce the adduction moment, and systematic training may l...
متن کاملGait analysis post anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: knee osteoarthritis perspective.
Individuals with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction are at increased risk to develop knee osteoarthritis (OA). Gait analysis describing kinetics of the lower extremity during walking and stair use (stair ascent and stair descent) can provide insight to everyday dynamic knee joint loading. In this study, we compared lower extremity gait patterns of those with ACL reconstruction (>1 ...
متن کاملSix-week gait retraining program reduces knee adduction moment, reduces pain, and improves function for individuals with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis.
This study examined the influence of a 6-week gait retraining program on the knee adduction moment (KAM) and knee pain and function. Ten subjects with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis and self-reported knee pain participated in weekly gait retraining sessions over 6 weeks. Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) scores and a 10-point visual-analog pain scale...
