Predicting Gait Retraining Strategies for Knee Osteoarthritis
Symptomatic knee osteoarthritis is one of the most common types of osteoarthritis and is one of the top ten causes of years of life lost due to disability. One common treatment strategy involves the prolonged use of anti-inflammatory medications. Recently, gait retraining has been proposed as non-invasive and non-pharmacological treatment option for knee osteoarthritis. However, many possible g...
متن کاملGait characteristics of patients with knee osteoarthritis.
The knee kinematics and kinetics of 139 patients (47 males and 92 females) with Grade II knee osteoarthritis (OA) were measured during level walking, stair ascent and stair descent. There was no significant difference in knee motion between the patients and normal subjects. The patients with knee OA had a significantly reduced internal knee extensor moment compared to normal subjects. This diff...
متن کاملMuscle force modification strategies are not consistent for gait retraining to reduce the knee adduction moment in individuals with knee osteoarthritis.
While gait retraining paradigms that alter knee loads typically focus on modifying kinematics, the underlying muscle force modifications responsible for these kinematic changes remain largely unknown. As humans are generally thought to select uniform gait muscle patterns such as strategies based on fatigue cost functions or energy minimization, we hypothesized that a kinematic gait change known...
متن کاملGait retraining: altering the fingerprint of gait
In terms of running, there is evidence that links mechanics with injury. This evidence provides the justification for altering these mechanics. Increased hip adduction and vertical impact loading have been most commonly associated with injury. More work is needed in order to understand the optimal way to retrain gait patterns in runners. The human body has a considerable ability to adapt. To pr...
متن کاملEffects of Backward Gait Training on Ground Reaction Forces in Patients with Medial Knee Osteoarthritis
introduction: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of backward gait training protocol on ground reaction forces in Patients with medial knee Osteoarthritis. Methods: This quasi-experimental study was performed with a pretest-posttest design in two groups of healthy and unhealthy and the experimental group (participants with medial knee osteoarthritis). The participants were 21 ...
