Combined effects of a valgus knee brace and lateral wedge foot orthotic on the external knee adduction moment in patients with varus gonarthrosis.
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that a custom-fit valgus knee brace and custom-made lateral wedge foot orthotic will have greatest effects on decreasing the external knee adduction moment during gait when used concurrently. DESIGN Proof-of-concept, single test session, crossover trial. SETTING Biomechanics laboratory within a tertiary care center. PARTICIPANTS Patients (n=16) with varus ...
متن کاملLoading of the Lower Extremity and Low Back When Using Wedge Orthotics during Walking and Stair Negotiation
Wedge orthotics are commonly prescribed for patients with hyperpronation and/or low back pain to improve lower limb alignment and to reduce pain. The purpose of this study was to examine the kinetic effects of medial and lateral wedge orthotics during walking and stair negotiation. Twenty-two healthy young adults participated in the study. Each participant wore no wedge (W0) as a baseline and l...
متن کاملA comparison of semi-custom and custom foot orthotic devices in high- and low-arched individuals during walking.

Some orthotic companies have begun to offer a less expensive, semi-custom alternative. The purpose of this study was to examine whether the semi-custom devices can provide similar rearfoot control and comfort as custom devi...

Aims and background: The aim of this study was to determine the effects of isolated and combined use of valgus knee braces and lateral wedge foot orthotics on the frequency spectrum of ground reaction forces generated in the knee by the gait of patients with knee osteoarthritis. Materials and methods: 24 males (age: 62.1 ± 2.0 years( with varus knee malalignment and symptomatic medial compart...
متن کاملInfluence of custom foot orthotic intervention on lower extremity intralimb coupling during a 30-minute run.
The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of a custom foot orthotic (CFO) intervention on lower extremity intralimb coupling during a 30-min run in a group of injured runners and to compare the results to a control group of healthy runners. Three-dimensional kinematic data were collected during a 30-min run on healthy female runners (Shoe-only) and a group of female runners who had...
