Kinematic and Kinetic Changes with Valgus Unloader Braces in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
INTRODUCTION Valgus unloader knee braces (VUB) are designed to decrease medial compartment knee loading and are effective at improving the clinical status of patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) [1]. Whether medial comparment unloading is a consistent result of VUB or whether other kinematic and kinetic alterations occur while the VUB is worn during gait requires further exploration. The purp...
متن کاملBiomechanical Analysis of Stair Descent in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis
[Purpose] The purposes of this study were to investigate the lower extremity joint kinematics and kinetics of patients with the knee osteoarthritis (knee OA) during stair descent and clarify the biomechanical factors related to their difficulty in stair descent. [Subjects and Methods] Eight healthy elderly persons and four knee OA patients participated in this study. A 3-D motion analysis syste...
متن کاملA kinetic and kinematic analysis of the effect of stochastic resonance electrical stimulation and knee sleeve during gait in osteoarthritis of the knee.
Extended use of knee sleeves in populations at risk for knee osteoarthritis progression has shown functional and quality of life benefits; however, additional comprehensive kinematic and kinetic analyses are needed to determine possible physical mechanisms of these benefits which may be due to the sleeve's ability to enhance knee proprioception. A novel means of extending these enhancements may...
متن کاملThe use of a lateral wedge insole to reduce knee loading when ascending and descending stairs in medial knee osteoarthritis patients.
BACKGROUND Stair climbing is a challenging task to the elderly being the task with the first complaint in patients with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis. Stair climbing results in around six times more compressive load transmitted through the knee joint than walking on level ground. The purpose of this study was to assess whether lateral wedge insoles would reduce medial compartment knee lo...
متن کاملEffects of backward gait training protocol on knee adduction moment and impulse during walking in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis
Background and Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of backward gait training protocol on knee adduction moment and impulse in male patients with medial knee osteoarthritis. Materials and Methods: This quasi-experimental study with a pretest-posttest design included two control groups (healthy and patient) and an experimental group (subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis)...
