BACKGROUND The important purpose of a powered gait orthosis is to provide active joint movement for patients with spinal cord injury. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to clarify the effect of a powered gait orthosis on the kinematics and temporal-spatial parameters in paraplegics with spinal cord injury. STUDY DESIGN Quasi-experimental. METHODS Four spinal cord injury individuals expe...
Objective: The number of people suffering from Osteoarthritis (OA) is increasing. Treatment of OA can be done with or without surgery. The most common treatment is using orthosis. However, most patients with OA prefer not to use orthosis because of downward transition. Therefore, the objective of this study was to design new orthosis and to assess its effects on knee joint kinetics and kinemati...
PURPOSE To evaluate any correlation between various foot angles and their respective American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) scores for pain, and the effectiveness of a medial arch orthosis. METHODS 81 children with bilateral symptomatic flatfoot were randomised into orthosis (n=55) and control (n=26) groups. The orthosis group consisted of 33 male and 22 female patients aged 36 t...
BACKGROUND Lateral epicondylitis is a common cause of pain and upper limb dysfunction. The use of counterforce straps for treatment of lateral epicondylitis is widespread. This kind of orthosis can be modified to have a greater effect on relieving pain by reducing tension on the origin of the extensor pronator muscles. OBJECTIVES To determine the immediate effects of a newly designed orthosis...
OBJECTIVE Lateral wedge insoles are a potential simple treatment for medial knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients by reducing the external knee adduction moment (EKAM). However in some patients, an increase in their EKAM is seen. Understanding the role of the ankle joint complex in the response to lateral wedge insoles is critical in understanding and potentially identifying why some patients respo...
Abstract Introduction: because thoracolumbar region is highly exposed to serious impairments, the different aspects of treatment in this region have been largely evaluated.Non-operative treatment in the situations not involved in neurologic impairments, has shown satisfying results. Body jacket and Jewett orthoses are among one of the Non-operative choices of treatment which there is a gap in ...
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...
Aims and background: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of lateral wedge insole on ground reaction forces and loading rate in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Materials and methods: Ten individuals with medial knee osteoarthritis and 10 healthy subjects with similar age, height and mass were studied. The kinetic variables and walking speed of the subjects were calculated...
The immediate effect of orthotic management on grip strength of patients with lateral epicondylosis.
STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study using a randomized crossover design. OBJECTIVE To determine the immediate effect of 3 common types of orthoses (2 elbow counterforce orthoses and a wrist splint) on grip strength in individuals with lateral epicondylosis. BACKGROUND Lateral epicondylosis is a common cause of pain and upper limb dysfunction. Although the effectiveness of orthoses has ...
When humans hop or run on different surfaces, they adjust their effective leg stiffness to offset changes in surface stiffness. As a result, the overall stiffness of the leg-surface series combination remains independent of surface stiffness. The purpose of this study was to determine whether humans make a similar adjustment when springs are placed in parallel with the leg via a lower limb orth...
