Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Kinematics parameters (the Spatial, Temporal, Distance variables and ROMs). Timepoint: This study was performed with a pretest-posttest design in two groups (healthy and patient) and an experimental group (subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis). Method of measurement: A Vicon motion analysis system with T-Series cameras were used to measure the Kinematics parameters. The Kinematics parameters of gait including were calculated by Vicon Nexus 1.8.5 software in pretest-posttest trials. All data were then extracted by Polygon 3.5.1.;Kinetics parameters (vertical ground reaction forces, Peak adduction moment and adduction moment impulse). Timepoint: This study was performed with a pretest-posttest design in two groups (healthy and patient) and an experimental group (subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis). Method of measurement: A Vicon motion analysis system with four T-Series cameras and two Kistler force plates were used to measure parameters by Vicon Nexus 1.8.5 , Polygon 4.1.2 software . | — |
