Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Total displacement of the distal tibia relative to the socket for each step in 5 stepping conditions and the maximal displacement in anterior/posterior/medial and lateral direction. Influence of alignment changes on tibial movement will be investigate by comparing the mean tibial movement between alignment conditions within the same step direction. In addition, test-retest and inter-observer reliability will be investigated with two-way mixed effect ICC model for absolute agreement.
