An electrogoniometer, capable of measuring all six degrees of freedom of knee movement, was developed in our laboratory. This Instrumented Spatial Linkage system was then used to generate data for a three- dimensional assessment of 20 ACL deficient and 30 normal subjects during level walking. The system proved to be a viable method for describing total knee motion. We found the ACL deficient knees to have increased anterior/posterior translation and significant pattern differences compared to the controls. The re sults of this study may have implications in the treat ment of the ACL deficient patient. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
