Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To identify differences in rotational velocity and acceleration between a healthy knee and an ACL injured knee using gyroscope and accelerometer data of a wearable during exercises. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| To correlate measurement data from the wearable with experienced knee instability by the patient.To correlation measurement data from the wearable and the static laxity (IKDC) grading given by the surgeon.To explore by means of a machine learning model if gyroscope and accelerometer can be combined into one outcome parameter that best reflects knee laxity and instability. | — |
