The Influence of Abnormal Hip Mechanics on Knee Injury: A Biomechanical Perspective

ثبت نشده
چکیده

terdependence of the hip and knee joints, the purpose of this clinical commentary is to discuss the biomechanical influences of abnormal hip mechanics on knee injury. This will be accomplished through a review of pertinent tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint biomechanics, as well as the current literature in this area. In addition, the clinical implications of this information will be discussed.

The influence of abnormal hip mechanics on knee injury: a biomechanical perspective.

UNLABELLED During the last decade, there has been a growing body of literature suggesting that proximal factors may play a contributory role with respect to knee injuries. A review of the biomechanical and clinical studies in this area indicated that impaired muscular control of the hip, pelvis, and trunk can affect tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint kinematics and kinetics in multiple plane...

Effectiveness of gait-retraining with auditory feedback on pain and lower body kinematics in injured recreational runners

Aims and background: Abnormal hip and knee mechanics are often implicated in runners with history of injury. We considered evaluating a simple gait-retraining protocol, using auditory-external feedback, in runners with running-related injuries and abnormal hip and knee mechanics. The effect of using external-feedback may have been more profound if the content of instruction had been relevant to...

Neuromuscular and biomechanical characteristic changes in high school athletes: a plyometric versus basic resistance program.

BACKGROUND In order to improve neuromuscular and biomechanical characteristic deficits in female athletes, numerous injury prevention programs have been developed and have successfully reduced the number of knee ligament injuries. However, few have investigated the neuromuscular and biomechanical changes following these training programs. It is also largely unknown what type of program is bette...

Muscle moment and angle of hip, knee and ankle joints in a seven- link model of backpack sprayer operator

Background and Aim: Carriage of backpack sprayers is an inevitable part of agricultural operations that increases the risk of injury along with undesirable changes in walking mechanics. The purpose of this study is to formulate the muscle moment changes in the hip, knee and ankle for the backpack sprayer operator body. Methods: In this study, a seven-link sprayer operator model is designed and...

The Influence of Sex and Maturation on Knee Valgus Moments during Cutting: Implications for Acl Injury

Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury rates are 3-8 times greater for female athletes when compared to their male counterparts. To better understand the biomechanical and neuromuscular risk factors associated with ACL injuries in females, numerous studies have examined sex differences in lower extremity biomechanics during athletic tasks. Studies in this area consistently have rep...
