Muscle strength and flexibility characteristics of people displaying excessive medial knee displacement.
OBJECTIVE To determine differences in strength and range of motion (ROM) between participants who exhibit medial knee displacement (MKD) during a squat that is corrected by a heel lift and those who do not. DESIGN Case control. SETTING Sports medicine research laboratory. PARTICIPANTS Thirty-seven healthy subjects (control, 19; MKD, 18) with no lower-extremity injury in the past 6 months ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Correction Medial Knee Displacement During Drop Vertical Jump on Performance in Male Basketball Athletes
Purpose: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury is among the most prevalent knee injuries among young athletes, aged 15-25 and occurs in 70% through a noncontact mechanisms. Medial Knee Displacement (MKD) is the key risk factor of ACL injury in basketball athletes. The present study investigated the effect of an MKD corrective exercises program on knee kinematics during Drop Vertical Jump (DVJ...
متن کاملIndividuals with medial knee osteoarthritis show neuromuscular adaptation when perturbed during walking despite functional and structural impairments.
Neuromuscular control relies on sensory feedback that influences responses to changing external demands, and the normal response is for movement and muscle activation patterns to adapt to repeated perturbations. People with knee osteoarthritis (OA) are known to have pain, quadriceps weakness, and neuromotor deficits that could affect adaption to external perturbations. The aim of this study was...
متن کاملMedial Unicompartmental Osteoarthritis (MUO) of the Knee: Unicompartmental Knee Replacement (UKR) or Total Knee Replacement (TKR)
The aim of this review article is to analyze the clinical effectiveness of total knee replacement (TKR) compared to unicompartmental knee replacement (UKR) in patients with medial unicompartmental osteoarthritis (MUO) in terms of survival rates, revision rates and postoperative complications. The search engine was MedLine. The keywords used were: medial knee osteoarthritis. Three thousand and n...
متن کاملMusculoskeletal responses of spinal cord injured individuals to functional neuromuscular stimulation-induced knee extension exercise training.
This study was conducted to evaluate a newly designed functional neuromuscular stimulation (FNS)-induced knee extension (KE) exercise system that incorporates the most desired features of previously described systems by determining the musculoskeletal responses of spinal cord injured (SCI) individuals to training. A specially designed chair and electrical stimulator were fabricated for FNS-indu...
